Steps to reproduce

1. Place any block with tile entity (Chest, Furnace, Command block, etc)
2. Place attachable blocks like ladder, button, torch, etc (or setup a BUD switch)
3. Delete the block with tile entity using the command /setblock x y z air [0 replace] (x y z being coordinate of the block)
4. The command output (or chat screen) says "The block couldn't be placed" but block gets deleted anyways, and adjacent blocks are not updated at all. (for example, a BUD switch would not activate).

Note : This only happens specifically with setblock air replace.
