Some of the entity animations are broken. The queries aren't providing a smooth flow, causing choppy animations.
Affected mobs (may be incomplete):
Chicken (Wings);
Ender Dragon (Every animation);
Fox (Pouncing)
Panda (Rolling);
Parrot (Wings);
Piglin (Dancing);
Shulker (Opening/closing shell);
Squid/Glow Squid (Every animation);
2D projectiles (Following the camera rotation)
Notes: Most of these issues started when their animations were made data driven.

This affects Panda (rolling animation) and squid/glow squid (tentacle movements and body rotation) in 1.19.0.21 and prior.
Confirmed still an ongoing issue in 1.20.0 (Same mobs as listed above, shulker mob animation, chicken wings flapping, and parrot wings flapping). EDIT: This involves many more mob animations that were added pre buzzy bees update including the panda rolling and the ender dragon flapping its wings and its tail.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go in creative and spawn in shulker, chicken, and parrot (Also works in survival, would have to find all mobs manually if in survival mode)
2. Hit the shulker, and when it pops out the animation is choppy compared to its java edition counterpart animation.
3. Find the chicken and hit it, it should flap its wings in the choppy animation, again unlike its java edition counterpart. Same for the parrot, just wait for it to fly and the animation will be choppy.
Observed Results:
When the mobs animation plays, when hitting it or just waiting for it to notice the player, the animation is very choppy compared to all of the mobs java edition counterparts. I have also observed that these mobs were added in a different time of bedrock edition development, where pocket edition was more limited and it seems that they have left some mobs out in the new animation style.
Expected Results:
What should happen is a smooth animation. The parrots wings should go up and down smoothly like the bee mob (The bee mob is NOT affected, just using it to compare). The shulker mob should open up smoothly like its java edtion counterpart and like the shulker box's animation. And the chicken wings are like the parrot, they should go smoothly like its Java Edition counterpart.
