[java]villagers keep pathfinding to a cauldron that no longer exists.

i moved a villager across my world, and used a cauldron to "lure" him from the ocean to my base. ive broken the cauldron but he kept pathfinding to the ghost block. i proceeded to make a small villager breeder. then i killed the ancestor that kept going to the cauldron

i replaced the exact same block the cauldron was on with dirt, and broken it again. ive reloaded my world. the cauldron does not exist anymore inb my eyes.

but even new baby villagers see this cauldron. they BECOME A LEATHERWORKER and i can trade with them. i dont want a leatherworker. but somehow they keep seeing a cauldron despite my very best efforts to remove this cursed thing from my world. there is not a single cauldron left in or near my base- yet life finds a way. they always go to the old location where the cauldron was originallly placed. pick up the leatherworker job, and i must do what has to be done

i play java 26.1.2 with Fabric, iris and sodium installed
