Minecraft Villager happiness addition

I know it would be a bit complicated But mojang should seriously add a happiness bar to villagers since they are technically like humans in the game There is already a small implementation of a trade value fluctuations to villagers According to how you treat them and how high or low the demand is If you hit , damage a villager or kill a villager infront of one (only in java edition , bedrock for some reason doesn't have it implemented) they will raise their prices If you trade too much (both on java and bedrock) With them it will cause them to raise prices to adjust for the high demand (like real life inflation) If you make them run out of stock You have to wait for them to restock But there is not a detailed "happiness bar" or a happiness index for villagers Like raising or lowering prices based on their happiness If they are happy with the player they will reduce the price (small implementation ie the player winning a raid and getting the hero of the village effect but not a dedicated one) According to how confined they are or how much space there is available The environment provided Etc Yes it would make the game a bit complicated But it will prevent players from exploiting them Confining them into locked spaces Just to trade And actually encourage players into treating them well like actual human beings of the game and be rewarded in doing so With more valuable trades And would encourage them to unleash their creativity Into building well structured utopias!

    There is already a system like this known as popularity (link leads to Minecraft Wiki), but it's an internal thing you can't see, similar to saturation. If you've ever noticed that all villagers' trades got more expensive, that's because your reputation with that village went down for some reason, and you can even sink your reputation so far that any iron golems tied to that village will be hostile. It's not a visible happiness/friendship bar like the ones for Stardew Valley's villagers or anything, but its still there.
