We sometimes have files pretranslated with a specific TM. We pretranslate 100% and fuzzy matches (up to 75%).

Hi,
We sometimes have files pretranslated with a specific TM. We pretranslate 100% and fuzzy matches (up to 75%).
However, when we start translating the pretranslated document with our main TM, it sometimes happens that the main TM has a higher match than the 75% pretranslating. In that case, the pretranslation is overwritten by the translation from the main TM. We don't want this to happen, we always want to keep the pretranslation and edit this when necessary.
Is there a way from preventing the main TM to overwrite the pretranslated segments automatically? I know we can deactivate the option to leverage the next segment automatically, but that also means a lot of work, especially in bigger documents, to manually leverage each sentence.
Or is there a way to sort of "lock" or "protect" the pretranslated segments?
