I am unable to trade with villagers after exhausting their available trades. Once all trades are used, they no longer restock as they normally should.
Steps to Reproduce:
Trade with any villager until all available trades are exhausted
Wait for the villager to restock (next in-game day / after sleeping)
Attempt to trade again
Expected Result:
Villagers should restock their trades and allow trading again after their normal restock cycle.
Actual Result:
Villagers remain locked and do not restock trades, even after sleeping or waiting for multiple in-game days.
Additional Details:
The issue has been occurring since version 26.10.24 Preview, and possibly since 26.10.23 Preview
It persists after villagers sleep and wake up
The problem occurs consistently across different devices and operating systems
Tested in multiplayer with a friend, same issue occurs
Tested in multiple worlds/maps, not limited to a specific save
Currently playing on Realms, where the bug is also present
The issue persists across all versions released after the one in which it first appeared
Impact:
This bug prevents further trading progression, making villager trading effectively unusable after trades are exhausted.

Update / Resolution:
After further testing, I was able to identify the cause of the issue.
The problem was related to the distance between the villager’s workstation and their bed. When the workstation was too far away, the villager would not restock trades. After moving the workstation closer, trading started working normally again.
Because of this, it seems this is not a bug but intended behavior related to workstation accessibility.
Apologies for the confusion, and thank you for your time.
