is there a reason

ComponentResourceOptions

which extends

ResourceOptions

doesn't have

deleteBeforeReplace

?

CustomResourceOptions

(which also extends

ResourceOptions

) has it.

Ultimately, you don't apply deleteBeforeReplace on the component but the custom resources within a component. Given that there is no current way to map a single resource option to N number of custom resources, it is omitted.

Gotcha, thanks, makes sense. I would call it out in BIG BOLD LETTERS in the docs though, as a fair warning :)

It's a good point. There use to be a warning shown in the CLI if you ran into this situation, but it was removed for other reasons.
