Villagers spawned with a spawn egg have professions

In the Java Edition when a villager is spawned he appears without any profession, and can only find his profession by aprosimar of a block of profession, but in the versions Badrook when being spawned they already come with a pre determined profession to ives to come neutral (that is, without profession)

This is a feature, not a bug. You can change their naturally spawned profession by making a village (literally placing a bed down next to the villager) and placing a profession block of the desired profession. If you wish to get them unemployed, simply break the profession block after placing it down.

Although this site is supposed to be for reporting bugs and not as a forum. I have to agree with Bernago here. Even if this was a "bug,"  (Which you aren't allowed to report bugs based on the disparity between Minecraft & Java Edition) there is an easy workaround to it. Plus, I have already seen multiple Map creatures that utilise this function on the Marketplace (i.e. Raft Survival). Changing this would break the maps which could have undesirable consequences.

I am still experiencing this on BE via Windows 10 despite ensuring there are enough beds for a new villager to take whether they are spawned in via command or egg or if they are bred by the villagers within the village. I have also been experiencing villagers spawning in with a profession and then swapping to another profession that is not present (such as a butcher or a shepard). If Java is experiencing similar issues, then this is not a feature, this is, in fact, a bug and one that requires fixing. This jeopardizes the creation of trading halls and the ability to create fixed professions within player made villages and these benefits were made prominent by the Village and Pillage update. 

Affects 1.16.200.56 Beta

Can confirm on Android in 1.16.201! This also happens when you summon in villagers using /summon.
