Regular players don’t take knockback from snowballs or eggs. Mannequins are designed to mostly behave like players. However, unlike players, they take knockback from eggs and snowballs
Steps to reproduce:
Summon a mannequin with /summon mannequin ~ ~ ~
Throw eggs, snowballs or ender pearls directly at it
Expected result:
The mannequin doesn’t take knockback
Observed result:
The mannequin takes knockback
