To replicate run these commands:

/scoreboard objectives add damageDealt minecraft.custom:minecraft.damage_dealt

/scoreboard objectives setdisplay sidebar damageDealt

/scoreboard players set @s damageDealt 0

/give @s minecraft:diamond_chestplate{Enchantments:[{id:"minecraft:thorns",lvl:10000s}]} 1

Then put on the diamond chestplate and summon zombies to observe them dying and the damage dealt not increasing
