I know
MC-249393was resolved as won't fix which describes the issue with the warden digging down right away.By editing your command slightly I can get it to not dig into the ground.
/summon minecraft:cow ~ ~ ~ {Passengers:[{id:"minecraft:warden",Brain:{memories:{"minecraft:dig_cooldown":{value: {}, ttl: 1200L}}}}]}To stop it from getting angry at the cow it is riding, I can set them to the same team.
First create a team
/team add warden /team modify warden friendlyFire falseNow we can summon a warden riding a cow while being on the same team with each other with the following command
/summon minecraft:cow ~ ~ ~ {Team:"warden",Passengers:[{id:"minecraft:warden",Team:"warden",Brain:{memories:{"minecraft:dig_cooldown":{value: {}, ttl: 1200L}}}}]}The reason as to why I reported this issue in the first place was because wardens could ride entities with no problems in versions prior to 1.19 Pre-release 3, and would not instantly dismount their rider and begin digging. This change in behavior in 1.19 Pre-release 3 seems quite odd, so I wanted to report it to allow Mojang to decide on whether they feel this is a valid problem or not.
