Remove the bow's loss of avvuracy as you hold it longer

Personally I don't think bow accuracy should be set ona timer. It makes it far more difficult for new players and players that are not as good at aiming. Additionally in my own personal experience eith the bow and arrow holding it longer gives me more time to eye my target and actually would help me become more accurate. Its honestly just a mechanic that I think many would find very annoying. Especially if they are trying to have a very relaxing game under certain settings over one where they are required to go fast paced just because of certain mechanics. Yes it may make certain aspects of pvp moreninteresting however there are many different types of players in minecraft and not all of them will like that. Infact not even all pvp players would like that. To go further I blieve once again it will split the two different combat sides of minecraft knce agin in terms of whcih combat they like better simply because of how annoying this mechanic will be for some. Which is why I think ot should not be something included in the game. Just leave nows how they are. If you want to buff crossbows don't just nerf something to make them look better actually create good unique and handy mechanics for the crossbow to make them better. If you jave to diminish something to make the other thing look better than it probably wasn't very good in the first place. Instead seek to improve what you want to make look better, so you can make it look better. That is all.

  if you to hold your shot for a long period of a long time, that's what crossbows are for. This change encourages bows users to swift with their actions. Crossbows will be better suited to tediously positioned shot. Meaning there are now two different play styles for ranged combat which I fully support. Bows and crossbows are now like hammers and screwdrivers. They get the job done in their own way.

  Something you don't seem to be considering, is that they're also increasing Arrows Accuracy, so overall I think it's more of a buff. Honestly the lower accuracy might still be better than the current accuracy. (not 100% sure on that, but at the least it's not much different)

  In addition to that, the lower accuracy isn't that much worse, it would only be very noticeable at long range, and if I had to guess, most people probably aren't usually shooting things from very far away anyways.

  And lastly, it's not that bad for things to get Nerfed, especially when they're one of the strongest Weapons in the game regardless.

  Actually, drawing a bow for too long in real life can really get your arm exhausted. That's why you lose accuracy.
