The bug
Piglins don't try to avoid walking into fire and soul fire. They are scared of soul fire, but can step into soul fire while fleeing from another soul fire block.
Also affects other non-fire resistant mobs.

Ah yes sorry. My brain is going to sleep aha
Np lol, I am Glad I've Finally Found a Bug
Can confirm. Affects normal fire as well.
In 20w09a
After some testing this seems to apply to ALL mobs, actually. For fire-resistant mobs this is no problem and is probably intended behavior as mobs that cant be burned will pathfind through lava, which regular mobs avoid just fine. But not just Piglins, but Hoglins, Endermen, Sheep, Wolves, Cats, Parrots, Villagers, Zombies, Creepers, you name it, walk right into fire, sometimes even when there's a spot wide open to walk through. And this is just idle walking, when they're chasing something they'll make a beeline straight through it regardless of an opening.
And it seems they do sort of figure out when there's an opening, but they walk on the corners so get lit on fire anyways. And it seems Parrots try to fly over fire, but sometimes land right in it when they get "tired" of flying. For Parrots specifically this also seems to apply to lava.

This all applies to both regular fire and soul fire.

Hi there!
I can't confirm for 1.16.2. Can anyone confirm for this release?

Can still reproduce in 20w51a, see screenshot. The cave spider on the right walked straight through
I can confirm in 1.19.2 using the setup provided in

Confirmed in 1.21.3
