I think this could be a part of [the changes in 18w46a|https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-snapshot-18w46a]
I think this is intentional behavior because this could be a part of the changes in snapshot 18w46a

Opposite of MC-158178 (Which is intentional behavior as it is a apart of the pillager's improved AI). When there is no target for the pillager to attack, they still load their crossbows.
This issue blocks MCPE-39095. As on Java, they don't load their crossbows but their arms are in a position of a loaded crossbow.
This is most likely intentional.
I agree that this is most likely intentional, but if Mojang wanted to make the pillagers smarter, they could fix that.
I would keep the current pillager, though.
I think this is intentional behavior because this is a part of the changes in snapshot 18w46a. It also doesn't make any sense why the pillagers should load their crossbows without a target. See here.
On early 1.14 snapshot or Bedrock Edition, the will load their crossbow without attack target.
@poweredbow Actually, they were added in 1.9 beta. Though in 18w46a, the pillager AI has been improved. Pillagers not loading their crossbows might be apart of that AI improvement.
Can confirm this for 1.15.2 and 20w19a, but very likely intended.
Can confirm in 20w51a.
Can confirm in 1.17.1.
In 24w35a
