Waypoints for Nether Fortresses and Bastion Remnants

Add some Nether structures that can orientate player where to go to find rare Nether fortresses and Bastion Remnants. I find this solution as the easiest one, without reverting the rarity or breaking vanilla rules.

My suggestion is to make "Nether Towers" scattered across all biomes in the Nether, that are guarded by wither skeletons and inside which you can find a construction like "arrow" or "pointer" that will hint at what direction you should go to find the nearest Fortress.

Even though Bastion Remnants are not that infrequent, there could be small houses for Piglins in some biomes that could have chests with Lodestone compasses that point to Remnants.

I just see this as Nether fortress occupants being more traditional and Piglins being more advanced when it comes to how they orientate in the Nether by themselves.

It's just that sometime in the future I'd like to make mod/plugin that will change and improve all structures in Minecraft and I had this idea that could fit the vanilla.

    They should have Nether Fortress and Bastion treasure maps, that can be obtained from Piglin Bartering (and, you know... have maps work in the Nether somehow).

    I mean, if they'll find out how to make maps work in the nether, they could as well add maps for different height levels.
    Also, I'd argue about piglins bartering maps for their bastions, because that would mean they'd just explain a "player", someone who adventures, where is the place they store and protect all their gold
    Maps for different height levels will be needed someday though, especially after Caves&Cliffs update
