Describe the bug

When gliding with an Elytra in a plot world, firework rockets only work while over a claimed plot that has the relevant flags enabled (e.g. mob-place + projectiles). Over roads and unclaimed plots, the rocket is cancelled and gives no boost.

Since roads and unclaimed plots make up most of the flight path, Elytra travel across the plot world is constantly interrupted.

To Reproduce
  1. Enter a plot world and equip an Elytra.
  2. Start gliding and fly over a road or an unclaimed plot.
  3. Use a firework rocket.
  4. The rocket does not boost the player (cancelled).
    (Over a claimed plot with the flags set, the same rocket works.)
Expected behaviour

Firework rockets should also work for Elytra flight over roads and unclaimed plots — or there should be a config option / road flag to allow it — so flying around the plot world is not constantly interrupted.

Checklist
Anything else?

On claimed plots this works fine once mob-place and projectiles are enabled, but there is no equivalent flag/config for roads or unclaimed plots, so rockets stay blocked there.

Note regarding the debugpaste: my server also runs an "ElytraDisabled" plugin, but it does not apply to the worlds where this issue occurs — Elytra gliding itself works completely normally there. This rocket-cancelling on roads and unclaimed plots also happened before I installed that plugin, so it is not caused by ElytraDisabled — it is PlotSquared blocking the rockets on roads/unclaimed plots.

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the issue in a plot world, then trace PlotSquared’s firework or projectile cancellation handling for roads and unclaimed plots, comparing it with claimed-plot flags. Done means the intended behavior or configuration is confirmed and Elytra rockets boost over roads and unclaimed plots without regressing claimed plots.
