block.getDestroySpeed always returns 1.0

[Kaelinator]

I'm trying to call the following method:

float destroySpeed = block.getDestroySpeed(player.getActiveItem())

but I always get 1.0, despite it being bedrock/wood/etc.

I also tried using spigot nms, but I also only ever get 1.0:

Block nmsBlock = CraftMagicNumbers.getBlock(block.getType());
ItemStack item = CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(player.getActiveItem());
float destroySpeed = item.a(nmsBlock.n());

Anybody else have this issue?

I'm using Maven, here's my pom.xml:

The player's active item is not the item currently in their main hand. You want player.getInventory().getItemInMainHand(). Also, that will only return > 1.0 if the item is a tool of some sort, shovel, axe, hoe, sword, shears, or pickaxe as those are the only items that affect the breaking speed of blocks.
