This is a touchy and irritating topic. I normally wouldn't post on such a thing, but I have to say this because some comments here are just opinions and not facts. I hope I can share a little on the topic.
First, Bedrock isn't "ruining" Minecraft. Version exclusives have been a thing since the different companies started making games. And this isn't a bad thing, but for general gamers, such as myself, it is frustrating at times if you want to play Kingdom Hearts and have an Xbox or play Halo and have a PS. So a different game engine working on the same game is bound to have differences and in some ways, make the game "better". I personally was irritated before when I HAD to switch (PC limitations) but ultimately, I love the fact potions can be put into cauldrons without a mod.
Second, Java and Bedrock are "VERSIONS" for the reason of Operating System specs and mobile availability. A PC can be manufactured and upgraded to support so much more stress where as consoles and mobile devices are weaker and subject to many limitations. This requires a smaller, but just as powerful (for infinite Random Generation) engine to run all the features possible and to allow things that were originally wanted, as interoperative as that is. So Bedrock is Multiplatform for many device limitations and Java is solidly PC. This means differences are going to be a thing.
Third, and I'll make this last point where there are so many more I can make, you don't HAVE to play a version you don't like. This is based on what Microsoft and Mojang can do with limitations and availability of code. Java and C++ are two completely different codding and thus can't be easily translated over to one another. So you don't like Bedrock? Play Java. Don't like Java? Play Bedrock.
I Love both versions for their different Pros. The Cons are there, but I can only play one at the moment because of limitations. I'd love to get back into Java, but Bedrock is still great in it's own way! And for me, everything is getting something subscription based or even micro transactions. So the marketplace (and there is a add-on creator so you don't have to buy things, but make them yourself) isn't too much of an issue. You can still buy ranks and perks on servers and Bedrock gives more detailed and out of the norm skins you can buy.
So the final thought. Don't hate something and try to bring it down for others just because you have an opinion. We are all still Minecrafters and LOVE the game! And just as the Original song "Thank You" stated, we all play the game differently! It's not for any one person to tell us what to think or how to play! You don't have to "LIKE" all versions, but recognize we are all Craftians!
