(Legacy Console Parity) Sword Blocking on PS4 Edition

Ever since PS4's 1.91 update on the old Console Edition, sword blocking has been removed. This is because, an update before that added shields, which could block alongside swords. Java Edition mods like Legacy4J bring sword blocking back alongside shield blocking, but I'm not completely sure why 4J Studios removed sword blocking in Battle Minigame as well as regular survival mode. This petition aims to bring back sword blocking in Minecraft: PS4 Edition (Legacy Console Edition)

    I agree with this, because this affected the ability to defend in the Battle Mini Game, with the absence of shields there. Either 1 of 2 things can happen on the legacy version of Minecraft: Playstation 4 Edition:

    1. Shields will added across chests in the Battle Mini Game (There is an option to disable this in custom battle mini game settings, will appear by default)
    2. Sword blocking should be added back across the whole game of Minecraft: Playstation 4 Edition overall.
