The amount of times I’ve done this and used my phone to take a picture of them so I can reedit it edit mode is way too many

Sorry but unless we're talking about a different button, that is not what the lock button does. It just stops the inspector window from changing its display to some other object you select in the hierarchy/project view. It doesn't stop property values from being restored after you exit play mode.

I usually just copy the entire game object
