Problem of 'Bad Omen' changes in 1.21 update

It used to be a bit tricky to defeat a pillager patrol as the captain gives player 'Bad Omen'. But now player can kill them without a risk, and it gives free ominous bottles. I think the challenge of pillager patrol is missed in this change.

I do like the 'Raid Omen' timer as the player can avoid an unnecessary raid, or as it gives enough time to send villagers to protection. But now since the player intentionally drink 'Ominous bottle' to start a raid 30s cooldown doesn't make sense.

 I have a suggestion.

• Non-raid captains give 'Raid Omen' which triggers a Raid after 30s timer.
• 'Ominous Bottles' are dropped by captains in the Raid.
• Ominous bottles give player 'Trial Omen' effect.

In addition I'd like 'Ominous Bottle' to be a splash potion to get the effect to a group of players.

  Maybe they could change it so that if you kill a pillager you still get bad omen, but if you bring it to a village and then blow into a goat horn, you sommun a raid. And the amount of difficulty of raids depends on how many ominous banners you have compiled into the area of the village. Thus way you can control when pillagers attack, and how many spawn as well and with what data. The ominous banner amount stacks to 5, in which case the boss of the raid will be an illusioner that is way more developed, and has many more attacks.
