Because protection is removed when you need the pick. The team knows that and receives compensation for their troubles. Examples from past show that the price for that is a SRP. SRP is nothing if something huge that would require the 2025 pick is on the line. That is why I think mentioning these pick protection is a big exaggeration.

These kind of statements are irrelevant in a discussion about what assets Mavs have. This is a discussion about what deal is worth spending your assets on. You are not using your assets for something that doesn't make you a contender, that is clear. The way you are proposing, Mavs will still be more than one move away next season if they stand pat this season and it still won't make sense to spend our assets.
