How to clean Entity fields before saving

I always have $protectFields = true;. I don't see it as wasting time because a) it only takes a couple of minutes in most cases, and b) you have to specify that at some point. You're either filling out the $allowedFields and passing bulk data in, or you're specifying which fields from the request you want to pass into, ensuring to select only the fields you want.
