This datapack adds 2 things that exist in bedrock edition but not java to achieve parity:
  • makes skeletons do melee attacks while being underwater because arrows dont travel far if submerged
  • makes drowned do melee attacks with their trident if the player is within 3 blocks

(normally in java edition in both cases the 2 mobs would only do ranged attacks)

Submerged Skeleton doing melee attack

Drowed doing melee and ranged attacks depending on distance

seems to spam the log with some custom data error messages when used in 1.21.11, could you please fix/update it?
