Mobs actually using the items they’re holding

When a command is used to swap the item that a mob is holding, it may not use it. An example is a skeleton; it still shoots arrows if it holds a sword.

    "it still shoots arrows if it holds a sword. " not in java edition, skeletons will use both bows and swords appropriately (the only thing they won't use properly is tridents)
    zombies and alike, however, don't use bows.

    I thought that they would already use whatever they’re holding.

    Yes this already works in Java, you might want to add "(Java Parity)" to the title to make it more clear
