The bug
When hit by most projectiles such as arrows and shulker bullets, the warden immediately enrages towards the owner of that projectile. However, this does not seem to be the case for blaze fireballs.
How to reproduce
Trap a blaze
Position a warden in front of the blaze
Have the blaze shoot the warden
Expected results
The warden would be angry at the blaze as soon as it gets hit by one of the fireballs.
Actual results
The warden is fine with being hit with the fireball and only gets angry after it tries shooting again resulting in vibrations.
Further notes
While wardens aren't damaged by blaze fireballs, this shouldn't change anything, as they aren't damaged by snowballs/eggs/ender pearls either yet these still enrage the warden upon impact.

Snowballs still trigger the warden 'taking damage' but it doesn't actually deal any damage, while blaze fireballs do literally nothing when making contact with fire immune mobs, its the same reason why zombified piglins wont stampede towards blazes after being hit by their fireballs.
I think it might be because the wardens are immune to fire damage.
