I use tall 1x1 wood fences as lantern posts. Rarely, Villagers can be seen freezing completely in this spot, not doing anything and eventually unlinking from their job sites. After a push away from the fence, they eventually start moving again. It seems that certain non-full blocks such as fences can ruin their pathfinding AI. This info might be unrelated, but there's a leashed Iron Golem in that fence.

Update: even if there's no leashed iron golem, it can still happen. It seems that villagers are trying to move forward and treat that tall 1x1 fence as something that they can pass through, but they can't. So they just get stuck and unlink from their job sites. I sure wish that there's a way to easily assign job sites/beds/bells to villagers in survival, like a pointer stick.
