Description
Expected behavior
As in earlier versions, the nodding does not happen, they look straight at you
Observed/Actual behavior
Mobs / animals nod when you stand on a pedal flower (1.20 biome flower) after a while when they look at you.
Steps/models to reproduce
- Place a pedal flower next to you
- Spawn a mob / animal next to you that can walk and look at you
- Stand on the flower and observe the mob / animal
- When they look at you, they rarely nod a few times in a weird way

Paper version
This server is running Paper version git-Paper-167 (MC: 1.20.1) (Implementing API version 1.20.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT) (Git: 0c0a480)
You are running the latest version
Previous version: git-Paper-100 (MC: 1.20.1)
Other
It could be that the AI has trouble because the flower is a block that is not entire a block but the AI is confused. Not 100% sure it is Paper or just Minecraft

Research direction
No source file or test is named. First reproduce the behavior on Paper git-Paper-167 with a pedal flower and a mob or animal that can look at the player, then compare against the earlier version if available; done means the reproducible nodding no longer occurs without regressing normal mob looking behavior.
