I assume you're talking about static playlists, correct? And not auto-playlists since a lock on auto-playlists would defeat their purpose.
But no such option currently exists. If it's important to you, post it to the Wishlist sub-forum for possible consideration.
Download the latest MusicBee v3.5 or 3.6 patch from here.
Unzip into your MusicBee directory and overwrite existing files.

Maybe you could make the static playlist(s) 'read only' or just keep regular (working ok) backups?
I don't see this as a worthwhile item for the Wishlist, although I could be wrong  ;D

I'd support a wishlist request. Making it read only might work, would have to try it and see if MusicBee squawks.
