I disagree with this. If a volunteer gets semi or full protection onto a submission because a enthusiastic editor is submitting the page over and over without improvement, the only way for that editor to get improvements made is by the edit protected request. When we do transition into the draft namespace, the request will also be valid. As I see that this has already made it into the code, would the other Developers like to opine on this or should I ask the AFC volunteers for a consensus?
A draft should never be protected, if there is an over-enthusiastic editor submitting the page over and over without improvement, then they should be blocked until they accept that they are doing it wrong.
And how Do we deal with dynamic IPs?

What about them? The whole point of the Draft: namespace was so that anons wouldn't have to create on talk pages.
the edit protected ones are mostly added by users copy and pasting the source of another page using that for a template... we can safely remove the templates!
Cleanup should remove edit protected requests -- https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Time_correction&diff=next&oldid=589467029 -- shouldn't have to be done manually.
