Unarmed vindicators raise their arm in offensive way when attacking

The bug

When attacking, vindicators without weapons raise their arm in offensive way.

How to reproduce

  1. Spawn a vindicator using the command

    /summon minecraft:vindicator ~ ~ ~ {HandItems:[{},{}]}
  2. Go to survival

  3. Let it attack you
    → ❌ Look at its arm and you should see that it is raising its arm which looks like it's performing a salute

I'm unsure whether this is intended since this is a part of the vindicator's AI of attacking, which allows them to attack with any item/block they wield.

But the question is: Are they suppose to attack, even if they are not holding any weapon, or should vindicators become harmless if they are not holding any item?

Stannya, this is NOT a duplicate of MC-158735

like pillagers, they shouldn't be supossed to attack. only evokers are able to attack without items because they don't need them.

@unknown, do not post comments like this. This is quite similar to MC-113377, which was a bug with something offensive. Your comment is inappropriate and unhelpful.

Well now Vindicators raises both of their arms like a Zombie when attacking without a weapon.

Will this issue will fix in bedrock too?

This really surprised me cuz I had already know this feature B4 this issue was put out, & I thought it should B a feature. I really DK this arm position has a such offensive meaning. Eww, pity that I was born in peace & know few history events 😞.

@BOBOIBOY SUPRA Go to MCPE-83581 for the same equivilent of this issue.
