Pigs struck by lightning become piglins

In the overworld when a normal pig is struck by lightning it becomes a Zombified Piglins.

I think it shouldn't automatically, instead it should become a Piglins first then overtime turn into a Zombified Piglins in the overworld. 

This would allow a few seconds for bartering gold before getting to the nether, and it would be good for lore.

    The pig turned Piglin should be neutral until provoked when it first spawns in in order to prevent a random hostile Piglins from attacking the players not wearing gold armor.

    because as it is now the zombified Piglins aren't hostile from the pigs struck by lightning or from the nether portal.
    But this could be dependent on game difficulty; in peaceful mode it doesn't work, easy and regular mode it is made neutral at first, but in hard mode it can be hostile to players not wearing gold, until it gets zombified when in the overworld.

    maybe Zombified Piglins made by Pigs struck by lightning shouldn't be holding a golden sword or crossbow when they turn. but they could still pick them up.

    fun fact you can still turn pigs with lightning in the end dimensions. with commands /summon lightning_bolt

    also if the unturned piglins are in the end they would still become Zombified as it is now, like regular piglins taken to the end.
