Is there no way to lock my survey from editing?

Hello, I don't know how to lock my survey questions after distribution. Even after I publish and distribute a survey, whenever I click already existing questions, I can just edit them without any pop-up window which makes it sure whether I really want to make a change. I think it's essential to keep the active survey safe. Is this 'lock' function removed? How can I lock my survey?

You can lock individual blocks. Just click on block options and set a password to do that.

Upvoting this. Really would like a "Lock" or padlock/unlock button at the top. That way Colaborators can scroll through a question, even copy/paste question text (often needed if we want to paste that question into another doc, or a Survey Dashboard), but it will not EDIT a survey.
If I click on a single question or text block, it "edits" the survey and starts a new revision. Would be nice to just LOCK the survey to ensure it's not in Edit mode.
