Bulk API Product Update Unnecessarily Deletes & Re-adds Options

[gusdemayo]

Preconditions and environment

Magento 2.4

Steps to reproduce

When making a request to /rest/default/async/bulk/V1/products such as

[
	{
		"product": {
              	"sku": "12345",
                "price": 20.00,
                "options": [
                    {
                      	"product_sku": "12345",
                        "title": "UOM",
                        "type": "radio",
                        "is_require": false,
                        "values": [
                            {
                                "title": "Pack of 10",
                                "sort_order": 1,
                                "price": 0,
                                "price_type": "fixed",
                                "sku": "PK"
                            },
                            {
                          	"title": "Case of 100",
                                "sort_order": 2,
                                "price": 10.00,
                                "price_type": "fixed",
                                "sku": "CS"
                            }
                        ]
                }
    	    ]
  	}
    }
]

If I make the exact same request twice, changing nothing about the product options, it will completely remove the existing catalog_product_option table entry(ies) and re-create them, rather than only updating the changed data, and resorting to completely re-creating the options only when strictly necessary

Expected result

If I make a request to update a set of product options, it should preserve the options as much as possible & avoid affecting cart items with selected options

Actual result

It completely replaces existing options, even when no changes are made
