A villager used to easily run away from a simple zombie in every case unless cornered, but now villagers are very prone to running swiftly into the mob they're "trying" to run away from, and they almost always end up dead in less than a minute!

Thanks for the video. Now people won't have to spawn in villagers to watch them act like how nitwits should've acted when they were added in 1.11
After testing a wandering trader, their behavior is actually fine unless they really want to stay in a specific area. It actually managed to survive being chased by zombies just like it did before 1.14 Pre-Release 1.
When I tested this, I found out that villagers don't even panic when being hit by zombie villagers: MC-151771
(It really doesn't matter if MC-151771 gets fixed if villagers keep trying to be nitwits by hugging zombies and cuddling with the illagers) Edit: can't wait for 1.14.3 then, no more suicidal villagers... mostly.
This seems to actually be fixed due to villagers actually being able to avoid mobs even better than they did in 1.13.2, but they spin and look incredibly stupid when running away. They make themselves dizzy and may summon iron golems when running away, which is actually really funny.
Regarding the Villager running from a Ravager, I have tested numerous times now in a new 1.14.4 world with newly spawned Villagers from spawneggs and Ravagers from spawneggs. The Villager will at first run away from the Ravager but as soon as the Ravager hits the Villager once, the Villager will do a 180 turn and run straight into the Ravager resulting in it being killed. Excact same behaviour as shown in the video attached.
With other Villager hostile mobs, the Villagers run away from them as they should and dont make a 180 turn when hit.
