[1.21.3/1.21.4pre1 Bug] Mob head CEM does not apply in first-person or the inventory

[SeaOfPixels]

Description of Issue

There is a long-standing bug where mob head CEM does not apply in the inventory or in first person via handheld, but does apply when placed and when worn. This has been a bug for a long time but I guess it was never reported, affects 1.21.1 as well as versions before then.

OptiFine Version

OptiFine 1.21.1 J1, OptiFine 1.21.3 J2 pre5, OptiFine 1.21.3_HD_U_J2_pre6, OptiFine 1.21.3_HD_U_J2_pre9, OptiFine 1.21.3_HD_U_J2, OptiFine 1.21.4_HD_U_J3_pre1
