Villagers do not unlink from workstations

Once linked to a workstation, villagers will not unlink from workstations even if workstation is removed or villager is moved 1000 blocks away.  Villagers still link and unlink from beds.

 

Edit: 

Maybe it's more accurate to say Villagers don't lose jobs after unlinking from workstations.

 

Example:

1 - New villager is bred

2 - Baby villager is removed from breeding area (100 blocks)

3 - Villager becomes adult non-nitwit villager

4 - Composter is placed, villager becomes farmer

5 - Composter is removed, villager remains farmer with original trades

6 - Villager is removed from area (1000 blocks) villager remains farmer with original trades.

 

Also, if I go to a village and remove all workstations, villagers still retain jobs with original trades. All villagers in all examples have never been traded with.

If you broke the workstation, how did you determine the villager was still linked to it?

Not sure if related, but I have a similar issue (MCPE-128666)

I have a Chemist on a village. I've traded with them to lock their job, zombified and cured them, took them away to a new village using boats. I gave them available brewing stand job sites, but they never took it. They just wander around aimlessly. They took the new beds I provided, but never the job sites, even after breaking and replacing.

I also have a Librarian with the same origins. After moving them to the new village, they took their job site for a while, but after a few days, they stopped working and decided to wander around aimlessly. It could be because they unlinked from their job site due to getting stuck, but they never bother to seek out that same job site again. Or perhaps they didn't unlink properly? Their behavior is similar to unemployed villagers.

This new village is a big one with 30+ villagers, but I made sure that the provided job sites are new and available. Other villagers in my village are working as intended with their respective job sites. It seems that for some villagers, they just gave up searching for job sites.

An easy way to fix this is to make employed villagers who haven't been working for many days to clear their linked job site (but not beds) and immediately make them link and seek job sites again.
Or better yet, an item that allows players to manually link each villager to a job site/bed/bell?
