Is it possible to constrain/lock/etc. specific extrusions while resizing a model?

I think I actually can answer this one! You have two options for scaling, uniform and non-uniform. You choose uniform, but if you had used non-uniform you would be able to scale on all three axises. It even shows up in the history and can be adjusted after the fact too!

you can resize your sketch too.. and it won’t affect the height
