Pistons have added functionality when placed so that when they extend towards [[obsidian]] with another [[block]] in the way, the obstructing [[block]] is destroyed and dropped in its existing state. This allows you to get normally unobtainable items like [[ice]] in place of Silk Touch, as enchantments do not and will not exist in BTA. It can also be used for certain farm designs, such as ice farms, cobble farms and [[tree]] farms, so that blocks can be harvested semi-automatically or completely automatically, depending on the farm's design.
