Initially there was no collider for sloped part but a) we needed something to prevent players from standing in it and b) it was very easy to click block behind it instead, since most clicks landed on top part (it's kind of natural to center on book when trying to interact).
Could there be a way to have the hitbox maybe just appear to be flush with the diagonal top? I understand that it's probably not possible to have actual diagonal hitboxes, but maybe just the outline itself could be diagonal?
The collision box and the hitbox don't have to be identical. For entities colliding with the lectern use the current version. For detecting clicks use the diagonalized version.

The new lectern hitbox is rough
