The bug
Unlike villagers, wandering traders will not show items they are willing to trade to the player when it is near and holds an emerald.

I have reopened the ticket, as from a non-technical perspective, wandering traders should act like villagers when it comes to trading, and as such this seems inconsistent. It might still be working as intended though.
This is also a parity issue with Minecraft Bedrock where the wandering trader indeed holds out its avaible wares when the player holds an emerald in its hands. So I dont think it works as intended in the java edition.
Thank you for your report!
