Research direction

Start with the make undeploy target and trace how NAMESPACE is selected and passed to the operator resources. Verify the undeploy path against a shared development namespace, then ensure the documented configuration makes it remove only Pulp resources without deleting the namespace.

Description

Issue Triage-Needed

Version
2.0

Describe the bug
I tried to deploy in our development namespace and then I did an undeploy. This resulted in my whole development namespace was removed with like 20 developers getting stopped.

To Reproduce
make undeploy

Expected behavior
I expected it to only remove its own resources, not the whole namespace. The documentation does not mention this. I just suggest setting NAMESPACE

Additional context
This is a really critical error I would say.
