Oops that is a good point.

I should refine my proposal to active and inactive savings accounts.
However if ALL accounts of that savings product are in pending approval,
that is okay since those savings accounts haven't started yet.

As an improvement, we can add a warning message at the top of the Edit
page that says "There are currently active accounts of this savings
product."

And then those fields would be disabled...
