There are a number of mistakes in this info.
The new lighting has two colors of light - one for the sky, and one for blocks. Different blocks do not have different colors.
The day/night cycle control was debug code, and probably won't be in the release.
This release is not "Adventure mode", that's a good ways in the future yet. It's still Survival.
Healing occurs only when one's hunger bar is at 90% or more, it doesn't scale with hunger.

No new Nether yet, that's 1.16. 1.15 is small but looks fun.

No, only poison.

It's good to know that floating villages work, with raiders spawning below them. How about underground villages, do they work too?
EDIT: I just checked this. Underground villages do indeed work - raiders just mill about the surface, confused.
Apparently villages have a vertical radius, too - if they're far enough down, a raid won't start until you go down far enough.

Even before the change 8 weeks ago, honey was exactly equivalent to mutton, which stacks to 64. So it doesn't seem as game-breaking as all that.

According to the wiki the hive stores a list of the entities inside it. So there may not be an easy way to get their number by commands.
It seems like a relatively easy thing for Mojang to add, though, so you could try requesting it.

That's not my recollection. My understanding was that the other mobs from the vote would not be added. The biome votes were different, though - they were specifically for which would be updated first.

I'm not talking about those, but the JSON entity tags described here: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Tag

I just noticed that 19w36a added a new entity tag, beehive_inhabitors. Currently it only tags bees... But there's no real point in adding an entity tag for only one entity.
So I'm guessing that we're going to see another arthropod mob after all. At a guess, killer bees, since they're known for invading honeybee hives. But conceivably wasps or hornets.

The best part, in my view, is what we *haven't* seen yet. It was heavily implied that there will be more biomes besides the ones shown... And I'm hopeful we'll see more new mobs, too. (A spectral mob that isn't slowed down by soul sand would be terrifying in the Soulsand Valley!)
That said, the biomes and mobs they have already shown are exciting already!

Actually, we know that the mountains biome will not be updated in 1.15. It was implied that it won't even be in 1.16.
Though you're right that we haven't seen all of 1.15 yet. I personally suspect that most of its changes will be "under the hood" - a mostly technical update.

One oddity of the current situation is that we know the name of 1.16 (the Nether Update) but not 1.15!
At any rate, it sounds like they're planning to push 1.15 out quickly. It's a small update, reminiscent of Frostburn.
EDIT: An oddity I noticed wrt the Piglins. They're always hostile (unless you're wearing gold armor), but the zombie versions of them aren't. What's up with that? Is it like how regular zombies only attack humans (or villagers)?
I wonder if Piglins will drop cooked porkchops the way zombie pigmen used to.

Huh. So 1.15 really will be just bees and bugs, then.
1.16 is shaping up to be amazing, though!

Wow. Today's snapshot adds quite a lot of power to commands and loot tables!

We definitely disagree there. I think the current mountains are magnificent, the best the game has yet seen. (I've been playing since a month before the Halloween Update, for reference.)
I'm still not sure if the "Bees and Bugs" thing was a joke or not. It seems unlikely that they'd blow the big reveal at MineCon ahead of time!
Good point about needing more arthropods to make the enchantment interesting, though!

Looks like we're going to be voting on updating more biomes before the other two from last year are gotten to, that's unexpected.
Who'd vote for a mega-rare biome like Badlands? I'm not sure which of the other two to pick... Swamps are extremely dull, but I spend much more time in mountains, and they could use some love too.
