Zombies should spawn with pickaxes below y=50

This is an idea that's not really often talked about, but a great one none the less. this feature would add a fun challenge to the game, and a reward for the players

Firstly, the challenge. its not that great of a difficulty change, obviously, but it's something, at least. the slight damage boost would increase the difficulty of mining very minorly (excuse the pun), giving players a nice challenge, as zombies with pickaxes would be fairly common underground, about a 50% chance.

Secondly, the world building. Seeing zombies underground with pickaxes will definitely make the world feel more fleshed out, and make the player think about the zombie's past lives and what they used to do, which is just a nice little feature that people would enjoy in their world.

    I think the chance should be a bit lower IMO

    I think the opportunity to get an iron pick from a zombie would be helpful for new players in early game if their pickaxe breaks
