AbstractModel

What it does

This abstract base class provides common functionality for Magento 2 catalog entities like products and categories.

Developers extend this class when creating catalog-related models that need attribute locking, store-specific values, multi-store support, and read-only or deletable state management.

It handles core operations like loading entities by attributes, managing store scope, and controlling which attributes can be modified.
