Surfaces/Materials can you make them unselectable?

I'm dealing with a fairly large prop that has tons of surface zones, a few of which I've made invisible. Is there a way to make these surfaces un-selectable to the surfaces selection tool in the viewport?

I know I can use the checkmark in the scene tab to make the whole prop un-selectable, but that's a bit overkill.

I don't believe so. You could use the Geometry Editor to select the surfaces (open the Tool Settings pane and click the + next to each to select all of its polygons) then right-click with the tool and select Geometry Visibility>Hide Selected Polygons.
