Revert baby mob growing stages change for Bedrock

Recently, the latest preview of Bedrock Edition, 26.0.23, removed a feature that showed baby horses, donkeys, and mules gradually increasing in size at different stages of their life when fed. This was a quality of life feature that conveniently showed the growth stage of an animal visually, as well as being a nice feature in general. This was removed from Bedrock to match "parity" with Java Edition. 
This change should be reinstated to keep QoL features in Minecraft, as well as bringing creative features from Bedrock to Java to ensure Minecraft remains as interesting as possible. 

The changelog listing appears as follows:

  • Baby Horses, Donkeys, and Mules no longer gradually grow in size as they age, matching Java Edition (MCPE-121628 )

    They would never make Java worse so it matches Bedrock, so why make Bedrock worse to match Java? This anti-consumer behavior is just rotten.

    If I wanted to play Java, I'd play Java. I want my horse growth stages and everything else distinctly Bedrock.

    If you're going to focus on "parity" give us something nice, like the off hand!
