How to reproduce
Get a baby piglin holding nothing
Bring them to the overworld or end and let them zombify
What I expected:
Baby zombified piglins always yield a golden sword in survival Minecraft and so when it zombified it should gain a golden sword
What happened:
Baby zombified piglin has no weapon
I understand this may be WAI but the old behavior (of gaining a golden sword when zombified) was replaced with this new behavior (allowing baby zombified piglins without swords) in 20w22a without a mention in the changelog. Since this change wasn't mentioned, I think it's possible that this was an unintended change.

No, that bug refers to piglins not dropping items, this is separately referring to piglins not gaining a gold sword. The baby piglins in this bug report are empty handed and don’t even have anything to drop on conversion.
If I place down a zombie pigman and then right-click it to produce a baby variant, the baby is empty-handed. I didn't see any naturally generated baby pigmen (gave up) so I think this is invalid?
Well that's actually caused by a separate bug MC-182903
