    Description

      The bug

      When a mob transforms into another mob (ex. zombie villager → villager, mooshroom → cow), it loses most of its NBT tags. This also affects conversions to the same mob, like slimes and magma cubes splitting.
      It is worth noting CustomName and NoAI are preserved (MC-6773 & MC-67437), so other tags are expected to be saved as well.

      Examples

      The following is a list of tags that aren't transferred between entities.

      From Zombie Zombie Villager Mooshroom Slime Magma Cube Villager Piglin / Piglin Brute Villager Husk Skeleton Hoglin Tadpole

      How to reproduce

      1. Summon a zombie villager with above tags 
        /summon minecraft:zombie_villager ~ ~ ~ {Health:10,Invulnerable:1,Fire:100,Tags:["foo","bar"],ConversionTime:1}
      1. Once the zombie villager converts to a villager, look at its NBT data 
        /data get entity @e[type=villager,limit=1,sort=nearest]

        → Note that the tags do not persist
