Holding loaded crossbows in first person mode dosen't show the correct animation. It has the same animation as if you're holding a shield with a crossbow in first person view.

As mentioned in my duplicate report, holding any offhand item (not a shield) while holding a loaded crossbow makes the offhand item disappear.
Summary: Crossbow aim is offset to right when loaded (not centered)
Environment:
Platform: Android
Device: Redmi Turbo 4 Pro
Version: 1.26.33.1 (Bedrock)
Description:
When equipping a loaded crossbow in Minecraft Bedrock 1.26.33.1 on Redmi Turbo 4 Pro, the crossbow model and aiming point are offset to the right of the screen center. Players cannot use the crossbow’s built-in aiming guide and must rely solely on the tiny center crosshair for long-range shots, causing severe eye strain during PVP and sniping. This is a critical accessibility/vision health issue, not just a minor bug.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Equip a loaded crossbow
2. Aim down sights
3. Observe: crossbow model/crosshair is off-center to the right
Expected Result:
Crossbow aim should be centered (consistent with Java Edition behavior)
Actual Result:
Aim is offset right, severely impacting PVP/sniping accuracy and causing eye fatigue
Note:
- Fix requires only 1 line of JSON in player.json (zero cost/risk)
- Players have successfully fixed this via custom resource packs
- Please prioritize this fix for player comfort and vision health
Can confirm for 1.16.100.51
