What is the difference between Gift, Dated, and Timed chests in the Winter Minecraft plugin?

Why does sneaking block chest interaction during loot preview in the Winter plugin?

Sneaking blocks chest interaction as an interaction safeguard to differentiate between loot preview behavior and actual loot collection. This prevents accidental item claims during diagnostic checks.
