My villagers are detecting workstations through walls that i don't want them to detect. For example, I have a few barrels in my house and i have loads of lecterns placed in my villager trading centre. the walls are completely solid and there are no windows or gaps or transparent blocks that they should be able to path find through. but when i break the current lectern that they are using to get another trade, they pick up a fisherman job even though the only barrels around are behind 2 solid walls! its so annoying plz fix. this works with lots of different pui's including barrels, stone cutters, cauldrons, smokers etc...
Reproducing the bug:
enclose a villager in a box of solid blocks (walls and roof, i used spruce planks)
ensure no gaps
place workstation outside of box
they should change their profession
try removing corners of the square box if not working

Villager POI detection (bed, workstation) is only affected by distance, not obstruction.
