Camera rotates when you switch to shoulder surfing

Description

If I switch to shoulder surfing while breaking a block, the camera rotates so much that I now completely miss the block.
I dont think this is an intended behavior, because when i look completely down and switch the camera mode a couple times, I face somewhere completely different.

Steps to Reproduce

While in first person, look down and switch to shoulder surfing cam. After switching back to the front facing cam, it'll be visible that you are now facing somewhere different.

Minecraft version

Fabric 1.21.4

Additional Information

I have replace the default camera mode setting on. Unsure if it changes anything
If I remember correctly, without any mods the bug still persists.

Thanks for the report. This is not strictly a bug. When you switch from the shoulder surfing perspective to first person, the rotations of the player will be adjusted such that the crosshair will aim at the same location you were previously aiming in shoulder surfing. However, this does not happen the other way around, because it is impossible to calculate for every scenario. You can find a more detailed discussion here.
