Basalt corrupted bastions are annoying to route since you need to break basalt/blackstone and avoid lava which spawns inside the bastion to get to chests, gold and can ruin the chance to aggro piglins and make bastions a lot more confusing instead of new players. Also the blackstone and basalt element can blend into the bastion making it harder to spot normally

I am fully aware that these bastions are being forced to be generated since both fort and bastion spawn 256 blocks from 0,0 but basalt corrupted has a lot more flaws than the positive of generating a bastion.

corrupted bastions are part of the vanilla game and they can add an element of skill in navigating the nether/bastions

idt artificially making one part of the game easier is good for draftout (unless it unlocks more goals like pearl trades)

and also committing to any structure/exploration is gonna have risks that should be considered as part of the decision making. and both players are gonna have the same bastion anyway

dont believe they are "generated"

i think seeds are simply found that have a fort and bastion within 250,250 from 0

i would agree with this as in one of my games, the bastion was basalt corrupted and all the piglin brutes were dead, so I couldn't find the bastion
