Guardian model becomes extremely disjointed from hitbox

Guardians' and Elder Guardians' models center of rotation is not centered within their blocky heads as expected and is intead floating in space above them, meaning that when they rotate to look upwards, their head can be entirely or almost entirely outside of their hitbox, making them almost impossible to target in combat unless F3+B hitbox viewing is enabled.

Attached is a screenshot demonstrating the issue in 25w18a as viewed from the side, with added lines to create a very rough approximation of the guardian’s center of rotation in space.
As guardians are very powerful and damaging enemies, this disjoint can make fighting them, particularly in the enclosed space of an Ocean Monument, extremely unfair as they will often be damaging you without you being able to respond in kind.
