reproduction: hit a blaze without vision of the player.
actual: other blaze start tracking the player though walls.
expected: Blaze don't alert other blaze of players they cannot see. OR Blaze lose interest in tracking players that they cannot see.(edited)

This is NOT a duplicate, just included for reference. Linked issue was that blaze would agro(ignite and shoot fireballs at) the player through walls. This issue is that the blaze track the player through walls.

Accordingly to the wiki: "Blazes target players within 48 blocks. If a blaze is damaged by a player or other mob, it alerts other blazes within 48 blocks to target the attacker."
This is what is happening in the game, but this behaviour doesn't make sense as blazes behind a wall can't hit the player.
As mentioned by David Wong, blaze farms are now completely useless as they float instead of getting inside the well known "hopper".
Can confirm this still happens in 1.18.1: Nearby blazes get "group aggro" when one is hit, but if they can't see the player, they will just hover up and down in place without ever attempting to reposition in order to actually being able to attack the player. This is different from any other mob with the "group revenge" behavior, as those will still move around to attack.
If this issue is valid, It's the same as not having blaze's entityCallsForHelp in the net.minecraft.entity.ai.EntityAIHurtByTarget class.
Really would be nice to see this 6 year old bug resolved. Please fix blaze farms! This should be higher priority since this is removing the fun of finding blaze spawners and wasting many players time building farms that don’t work. I know I’ve wasted many hours trying to fix double blaze spawners to no avail
It renders my blaze farm useless. Other alerted blazes don't move when 1 is hit.
