a) tested spawning in with commands. Wasn't working still.
b) tested different items. Nothing.
c) using MCStacker to properly write commands, ensured that "able to pick up loot" argument was stated. Spawned in w/o command block and zombie picked up diamond sword.
Conclusion: It seems 20w16a is NOT spawning zombies with ability to pick items up.
Although, thoughts are still VERY welcomed lol 🙂
