I would recommend people take a look at Switzerland's example. The trade agreements are incredibly precise and protectionism was and is always a thing. Always. And also refer to Ha Joon Chang's Kicking Up the Ladder.

I agree global free market trade is and should be an ideal but it will always be an ideal as long as everybody is NOT on the same boat. In other words, as long as you don't have a libertarian paradises everywhere, global free trade doesn't work. Global free trade will only work if ALL countries are libertarian paradises. And we're absolutely incredibly far from that.

Eventually I will create more content about this. Because the examples are many and people don't know about them.
