Implement the losing mob traits to other things

We know that when one mob wins, the others lose. However, the glare and the copper golem were also good options and provided cool new ideas that came with them. They will never be added to the game themselve, but what if we can use some of those ideas and implement them in different ways? That is what I am proposing now.

Glare- Perhaps the functionality of the glare could be added to bats? Maybe now bats only spawn and sleep in areas hostile mobs can spawn. I think this would not only keep the cool ideas the glare had, but also give bats more of a purpose and make them less annoying.

Copper Golem-I think this is pretty simple, just add more things to make copper more useful. The obvious choice is copper buttons, but maybe also spyglass-bows and things like that.

In the end, I think the cool functionalities and ideas that the losing mobs brought to the table should still be added to honor the mobs.

    Who said they would never be added to the game? I don't get why people are so confused about how it works. These mobs were not discarded; what happened is they're prioritizing which mob out of these ideas to add next based on the vote. This pretty much applies to all votes from after 2017. Losing biomes and mobs are just archived into the idea pile where they might go back to them later if they feel like they're worthy and urgent enough of an idea. The vote is just for prioritization. We're literally having the Swamp update in 1.19 and yet people are still confused. The short answer is they're neither discarded as a whole nor planned for specific updates, most likely. They still exist and have potential to come later, and I believe the Copper Golem particularly is one that we might see sooner given how popular it is and how Ulraf (a developer) said it could potentially have some connections to Archaeology if/when it's added (NO PROMISES).
