    Geologists clearly use custom world generation rules.

    As a geologist I will retort that if Minecraft environments had eroding surfaces like real life does then that bedrock would also be visible at the surface. Outcrops are just areas that are experiencing erosion rates faster than areas that are overlayed with soil. That said, there are a cool Minecraft programs for geological processes that have been shown to be educational.

    I’ve had many hundreds of hours of Minecraft these past few years but… What’s layer 4?

      Y-level. Before 1.18 the top layer containing bedrock (ETA: in the overworld) was y=4.

        They changed the height of bedrock?

            Why would they move the bottom of the world below 0 instead of just moving sea level upwards?

              In early snapshots, they simply extended the build limit upwards like you suggested, so when people loaded their old worlds in they started complaining about kilometer-high walls generating in every direction

                Why didn’t they just move all the old stuff up?

                  that would require moving every single thing up which would break a lot of stuff like mod/plugin data

                  That would probably cause a lot of lag and bugs

                  That would lead to playering being able to accidentally mine themselves off a cliff and throw themselves into the void. You’re not supposed to get under the bedrock.

        Technically, the top layer bedrock can spawn at is either y=128(the nether roof) or the top of the obsidian towers in the main end island

    The first 3 layers (horizons) are A, B, and C, respectively. Ask me how I know
