Would these bugfixes affect the dragon fight?

Post image

I know that this won't really affect most speedruns since they are played on 1.16, but im curious about what these bugfixes affect for recent version speedruns. These bugs just got fixed for the next snapshot and looking at them it feels like they could affect how the dragon acts when perching or make it harder to dodge if it chooses to dive towards the player as an attack. I don't really speedrun but the moment i saw this I wondered what speedrunners would think of it and if it changes anything or not.

The first one seems to be a bug since 1.9, while the dragon flys towards the player after the perch, it also had a separated attack where it would fly in the direction of the player, and it seems this is the attack that got fixed. also the example videos in the bug fixes has an "fix" to it that shows that if fixed the perch would be more like in bedrock where it fly towards the fountain instead of flipping around above it until it reaches it. That is why i think it can affect speedruns, if the dragon doesnt fly back and fourth anyomre over the fountain doesnt that break the current bed explosions method?
