hi all!  `pulumi preview`  vs `pulumi preview -diff` - we are doing resource retention with the `retainonDelete` option.  We noticed that when just using `preview` we see the flag that says `retain`.  But same stack and command with the `-diff` flag doesn't show `retain` - is this just a UI/presentation issue?  We are just concerned about a different outcome and what's actually going to happen

Yes. UI only. What does it say when you use `--diff`?

Probably not by design. Probably the requirement to change the diff output wasn't added, when they added the option.
