Only did a little experimenting, but it does seem like there is a lot more potential for bonuses now.
And that was without any chiseling too, which did not seem to not work at all though (perhaps it will only apply with a higher block count?).
I do like that decorative wood and rock relatively speaking get a lot more value (no nerf compared to other blocks and higher bonuses on top of that). But it is really hard to estimate how existing builds will be affected without knowing more details about the bonuses.
