Throwing an ender pearl directly at a zombified piglin angers it and all other zombie piglins nearby, despite pearl projectiles not dealing damage.
Steps to reproduce:
Summon at least two zombified piglins, using /summon or simply by traveling to the nether.
Set your gamemode to survival via /gamemode
Give yourself an ender pearl using /give, and throw it directly at one of the zombie piglins.
Observed behavior:
The zombie piglin and all other zombie piglins nearby aggro on the player and attempt to kill them.
Expected behavior:
The zombie piglins ignore the player, as ender pearls do not deal damage to mobs.

Probably a duplicate of MC-165507
@Punch I test later to see if that is true, but it does seem strange that ender pearls damage mobs, and this issue can be irritating for a player navigating the nether, if you hit a zombie piglin by accident when pearling around the nether, and anger every piglin in the area
Pretty sure this is intended given that it's a clear form of attack, even if non-damaging.
I wouldnt consider an ender pearl a "clear form of attack", as it is primarily for transportation, and not a weapon or combat item
I can confirm that this is an issue. Also affects 1.17.1.
Definitely relates to MC-165507.
This seems to affect all neutral mobs except endermen.

Related to MC-165507
In 23w31a and 1.20.1
In 1.20.2 Pre-Release 2
This doesn't only affect Zombified Piglins it also affects other neutral mobs like Iron Golems
In 23w43b and still related to MC-165507

I'm pretty sure that teleporting into any enemy in survival does damage. been like that for a while actually.
