 Hey @peterwilsoncc

 There are two aspects in affect. None are yet in place.
 1. One can not in an easy way discard a save. It has not been worked on. I
 made a new issue here:
 **Improving multi-entity saving UI method.**
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/31456
 Where an discard option is added in the 3 dot/ellipsis drop down menu. The
 hidden UI that currently exists is that one can uncheck to Save Reusable
 block, and then save anything else, and leave the post/page and the
 Reusable block will not be saved.

 2. Making a change to a Reusable block in WP 5.7 is just too easy compared
 to how it was done in WP 5.6.
 At the moment we are trying to get this PR: (linking to a Code review
 comment from @youknowriad )
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31109#pullrequestreview-661793222
 merged so that it can be included in WP 5.8.
 What it does is add a "lid" on top of the Reusable block. So the first
 click selection of the Reusable block selects the entire block. Current
 behavior it will select the inner contents. Having a first initial click
 select the entire block, adds some protection making it just a little more
 difficult in making an accidental change.


 Because of the problems with Reusable blocks in WP 5.7. I have also begun
 rethinking the UI and UX of how these work today.
