Disabling All Object Interaction

I just recently noticed something that seems new to me when designing:  an option to "disable all object interaction".  How long has this been there and what is its purpose?  How is it different from locking parts of your design?

I don't quite get it, but here is their explanation: https://community.zazzle.com/t5/creator-news/design-tool-update-locking-for-layers/ba-p/218980

Locking isn't Locking anymore, and you have to disable object interactions to actually Lock something.

Thank you Wollastonite for replying.  I could not figure out why I was unable to change some things when I went to update some old designs.  I could plainly see that I had unlocked them so that I could work on them but I could not change anything because they seemed still locked somehow.  But I eventually saw the new thing about "disabling all object interaction".    It is hard to see that option.  I had overlooked it several times before I actually saw it . I did not personally choose that option to "disable all object interactions".  Somehow I missed the notice from Zazzle that this was being done so I was not looking for it.  Can't say that I care for it.  So is the guidance from Zazzle that we should lean toward not choosing that option since it would prevent customers from making changes whereas the Lock option allows for keeping your design elements permanent but allowing for re-positioning and color changes,etc. by the customer.  Or have I got it ALL confused?   Anyway, thanks for sharing!
