Iron Golems don't do knockback on players when they hold a shield unlike zoglins, hoglins, and ravagers
Zoglins, hoglins, and ravagers all do a little knockback when they hit a player holding a shield. However, iron golems don't give players knockback when they hold a shield even when they can fling players without a shield. Zoglins and Hoglins can fling players just like iron golems except that they can knock players upwards even when holding a shield. Iron golems should also have the same behavior as zoglins, hoglins, and ravagers.

Relates to MC-217567
It's meant to block attacks, yes, but this attribute overrides the knockback resistance of the shield, so in that way ravagers, hoglins/zoglins and wardens can deal you knockback while blocking. This behavior is also a mechanic and not a bug, judging by the triage of MC-217567.
Despite Wardens having an attack knockback of 1.5, they don't deal knockback to players blocking with a shield, unlike ravagers. This might or not be caused by how they disable the player's shield after every attack, or might be another case of MC-235198 (Which this report has been split from).
I believe this is a valid issue since MC-217567 is a similar case, and has already been triaged.
How to reproduce
- Summon a warden, apply yourself a high resistance effect.
- Try to block a melee attack with a shield.
- Notice how the shield has been disabled but you haven't been knocked back.
Expected result
The player would have taken knockback from the attack, like how it happens with ravagers and hoglins/zoglins.
Observed result
The player doesn't receive any knockback from hits blocked by a shield, despite normal hits dealing considerable knockback.

yes, because they don't have the attack knockback attribute which was added way after golems were introduced, unlike the other mobs you mentioned.Seems like i was wrong here, that attribute doesn't work on iron golems, and doesn't work on shields either as per MC-235198.
