When a mob gets converted to another mob while it is attacking something, it will lose its target once the conversion is completed.
Steps to reproduce:
For example, summon two skeletons.
Make them shoot each other, then make sure they don't die (instant damage potions).
Trap one of them in powder snow.
❌ Once one skeleton has converted into a stray, it will stop attacking the second skeleton, and the other way around.
