Are you setting up a base `opts` and passing it to various ComponentResources? Check that opts.

Or, do you have a stack transformation set up, that adds `protect: true` to all opts?

<@U044T7C40QK> Knows more, he’ll reply.

I have it set on a namespace which is a parent of everything - i want to protect the namespace but not everything under it as it doesn’t matter as much

Opts are inherited through the parent relationship. Set `protect: false` on all the direct child resources of the namespace and it should sort itself out.
