Bring Spear Throwing to Minecraft for Authentic Combat

Dear Mojang Team,
I would like to suggest an improvement for the new spear weapon recently added to Minecraft. Currently, it only works as a melee weapon, but I believe it would be very exciting if it could also be thrown, reflecting the historical and real-life use of spears.
The positive aspects of this change would be:
•     Making the weapon more authentic and true to its original purpose.
•     Expanding combat variety by allowing players to choose between close-range attacks and long-range throws.
•     Increasing gameplay versatility, since the spear could be useful in different situations, both against mobs and in PvP.
•     Enhancing immersion and fun, giving players new creative strategies.
Of course, it would be important to differentiate the spear from the trident to keep the game balanced. For example, the spear could have faster throwing speed but deal less damage than the trident, or require manual recovery after being thrown.
I believe this addition would greatly enrich the player experience and give the spear a stronger identity within the game.
