Currently, the ocean parameters are required to be defined for every biome config which makes the assumption that the config dev wants some kind of ocean present in their world. This may not be the case and so the config dev is required to set these parameters to something redundant like ocean.palette to BLOCK:minecraft:air.

implemented in aa5ccd0

^ with that, why have concepts like "ocean" at all?

It would be much better if we instead used a concept like "fill everything below this y level"
yes, that's what the oceans do, but that would be more extensible. Especially if you could say "fill it with a certain palette" rather than just 1 block type

that's already how the config works.

oh sick, just making sure lol
