      The bug / Steps to reproduce

      Place down a command block with a pressure plate on top that sets players who stand on it to spectator mode. Get a bow and arrow, draw back the bow but do not release. Step on the plate to enter spectator mode then release the bow to fire the arrow.

      This bug allows you shoot arrows in a situation where a map maker most likely doesn't want it. In and of itself it's quite a cool concept but doesn't seem to work as it should!

      The same bug occurs with tridents in 1.13 and later.
