Oh ok. So basically the effects of netherite are not applied even when an undead mob is wearing netherite armor?

Here's a code analysis of this issue.
Code Analysis:
The following is based on a decompiled version of Minecraft 1.18.1 using MCP-Reborn.
If we look at the above class, we can see that no checks are carried out to see what type of armor a non-player entity is wearing on their head, before receiving damage from exposure to the sun. The only check that is in place is to see whether or not the item on their head can consume durability. This is evident through the following line of code:
if (itemstack.isDamageableItem())Because of this, netherite helmets worn by non-player entities can be damaged from exposure to the sun.
