Pillager's "not attacking" pose is inconsistent with other illagers

Pillagers always have "unlinked" arms, even when not attacking. This is inconsistent with all the other illagers, as when they don't attack, their arms are "linked", similarly to actual villagers. A fix would be to either:

  1. Unlink all illagers' and villagers' arms, or

  2. Link the arms of the pillager when it is not attacking/targeting a village, which should be WAY easier to do than the former.

This seems like the same behaviour skeletons have when they dont have a bow

Because they can't hide their crossbow in their hands and vindicators do that cuz they can simply do

[Helper] Urielsalis when skeletons don't have a bow, they do melee attacks against the player, and even when they do hold a bow, they hold their arms "downwards" like a player when not attacking. Pillagers, on the other hand, seem to constantly be "targeting" villages, and even when they aren't attacking, they still "load" their crossbow. And as an added note, pillagers without their proper weapons don't attack at all (MC-139433), unlike skeletons. What doesn't make sense is how pillagers can't hide crossbows in their sleeves, but vindicators and illusioners can seemingly smuggle similarly-sized weapons in their sleeves when not attacking.

Pillagers cannot link their arms because if their crossbow gets charged it can mess up the game
