Dying Pig/Villager converts to alive Witch/Zombified Piglin

Lightning converts dying pigs and villagers. Because the Pig/Villager is dead it should not convert.

What I expected:
The Pig/Villager died for real

What happened:
The Pig/Villager turned into a Witch/Zombified Piglin

Steps:
1. Get trident from creative inventory
2. Use command /enchant @s channeling
3. Use command /weather thunder
4. Spawn a Pig/Villager or find one
5. Use melee attack enough times
6. Use ranged attack
