... why not also dryplants:reedmace_saplings and other plants placed in the water?

This is currently not possible for nodes due to engine limitations: https://github.com/luanti-org/luanti/issues/14480

dryplants is using an entity to fake this effect (what you're seeing underwater is not reedmace_height_3 node, but a special entity)

ethereal is using models that span multiple nodes to fake this:

~~(that's why you can only point at the bottom of these seaweeds and why they all have same length)~~
Actually, they use drawtype plantlike_rooted, which allows them look like this and have varying height (which is still limited to 16).
