I tried placing command block minecarts but they wouldn’t place, and then I tried summoning one and it said it could not do it. So I checked the console and found it flooded with errors.
MinecartCommandBlocks fail to exist in Sponge. Here is an error that resulted from summoning a MinecartCommandBlock:
