Issue: In the loot tables integration section there is a reference to the possibility to modify the loot tables of blocks, but it is not possible to do so.

Page: https://wiki.bedrock.dev/loot/loot-tables.html#integration

Suggestions: I think that it should be specified that the block's drop cannot be altered. At least, I have not found any reference about the possibility of altering it.
The loot table page should not hint that it is possible by showing an example of the folder structure containing a "blocks" folder:

Custom blocks can also have loot tables so the blocks folder is where the json file is stored. A better solution would be to put somewhere in the wiki that the loot table of vanilla blocks cannot be modified

I agree with that. I was trying to modify the drop of vanilla blocks and I couldn't find a way.

My goal was to reduce the amount I need to play to achieve certain goals due to time limitations. Any idea about how to multiply all the drops? Like instead of 1 cobblestone per stone, drop 2 or 3, same with ores, mobs, ...
