Skeletons body doesn't rotate like players when strafing

The bug

When a skeleton is strafing, their body doesn't rotate to the direction it's moving whereas players bodies rotate to the direction they are moving.

How to reproduce:

Spawn a skeleton and wait for it to target you
See that when it strafes, its body always faces you but it is supposed to rotate sideways because players bodies face sideways when they walk side to side
