New golems

I think it’s unfair how Minecraft Legends gets all these cool new golems with special abilities but Minecraft just keeps the really old Snow Golem (not very useful and really weak) and Iron Golem (really balanced and cool feature). What if there were more golems in vanilla Minecraft? And if they had different abilities/purposes/uses? Personally, I have always wanted one or two spawnable mobs (in survival mode) that can attack you for training purposes. It is time we get new golems. Even Mojang knows cus they keep trying to add them into mob votes. RIP TUFF GOLEM :(

    Like maybe the copper golem, I keep seeing them in YouTube shorts, and they look so cool.

    The reason Copper & Tuff lost was mostly due to usability for most players. A random button or moving item frame just isn't that handy for survival or builds. Now their "cool down" mechanics are perfect for what more useful golems should be modeled with to do the following functions:

    Guarding-(gloom-like) This golem will patrol around the edge of a lite area and will alarm at nearby hostiles, summoning Iron or snow golems (possibly a new ranged attack golem) it may periodically just chill in a spot. It can be led by a lead but will only alter at hostiles if in a lite area, making it a useful mob to watch your back when solo mining.

    Automaters- these golems will tackle grinding tasks for players and have a maintenance or cool-down need to ensure players check up on them. Fishing, Farming, Lumber harvesting (log block breaker), Cobblestone block breaker, and Item sorting; are all tasks players would love to automate, and that could be balanced by golems that do cool-downs or need maintenance periodically. 

    Attacking/Defense- this is mostly filled already but; an improved ranged or smart turret that could be limited by actual ammo consumption (buffed by being able to toss potions) and a shield/wall golem that is 2 tall and will move in front of ranged hostiles to block their shots are two niches that need a golem. Beyond ways to improve Iron or Snow which seems unlikely to happen.
