Similar to MC-271252, bucket entities lose all equipped items (held items and armor items) when picked up and replaced with a bucket.
How to reproduce
/summon tadpole ~ ~ ~ {ArmorItems:[{},{},{},{id:"minecraft:iron_helmet",count:1,components:{"minecraft:enchantments":{levels:{"minecraft:thorns":255}}}}]}
In survival mode, attack the tadpole to confirm it has a helmet enchanted with Thorns
Pick up the tadpole with a water bucket
Place the tadpole back down
Attack the tadpole again in survival mode
Expected result
The tadpole would continue wearing the helmet with the Thorns enchantment.
Observed result
The tadpole no longer wears the helmet enchanted with Thorns, so you won't take damage when attacking it.

How is this a feature request or suggestion? This is as much of an issue as any other data being lost when an entity is bucketed. MC-271252, MC-279904 and MC-279905 are all valid. It's not even a matter of it only being possibly seen through commands, as MC-271252's behavior is only seen with commands.
Can confirm.
