Cartographer Villagers never unlock item frames

I have tried numerous times with many many villagers to get a Cartographer villager that trades item frames. Honestly the only reason that I want the villagers in the first place. But unfortunately no matter how many villagers I cycle through and kill. They always unlock 2 banner trades, rather than 1 banner trade and 1 item frame. I do realize that they are supposed to be random, but not every villager I go through should always have banners, there has got to be some item frame ones. Telling me that the game is bugged.

There are 17 possible trades for that level (16 banner trades and the item frame trade), 2 are randomly selected so, 1/17 chance as the first selected trade, a a 1/16 chance as second selected (if not selected yet); those odds are rather low.
This is just bad luck, and not a bug.
Reminder, chances do not change for a second, third or fourth villager, they remain unchanged.

Personally the math shouldn't be that way.. It should out of 3 options. Banner, banner, and item frame. Should choose randomly which two. Then do the math for which banner it chooses. 1 out of 17

That would be a change request and not a bug.

Would you like to point me in the direction of where I select, “change request”? oh wait, yeah you can’t, because their isn’t one.

feedback.minecraft.net; Minecraft has a button linking to that in the pause menu, just as it has a button titled "Report a bug" that leads here.

Basically, feature/change requests should be posted on feedback.minecraft.net. This is a bug tracker for reporting game bugs.
