Game Object adds itself back after scene reload?

Here is the base Code. Literally as simple as it gets.

 namespace CompanyName
 {
     namespace Spawning
     {
         public class Spawner
         {
             public SpawnCluster [] cluster;
 
             void OnEnable()
             {
                 Debug.Log(cluster.Length);
             }
         }
     }
 }
 [System.Serializable]
 public class SpawnCluster
 {   
     public string name;
     public int count;
     public int max;
     public Vector3 bounds;
     public Vector3 center;
 }

This is part of a massive spawner, but ended up stripping EVERYTHING out of it until this was the only code left, that still allowed the issue to be reproducible.

Important Notes

• The spawner is never modified or referenced externally.

• I have no custom editors of any type in this game.

• The spawner is in a custom name space, as i have another identically named spawner in a different namespace. However, I removed it from the namespace and the problem persists.

• I have also tried remove the parent gameObject, closing unity and restarting and running the game again. It adds itself back after the scene reloads.

• if I removing the game object and run the game, the object adds itself back (LIKE WTF?)

• The Array has content when i first start

• The array loses its content when the scene is reloaded.

• a new script with the exact same content but a different name does not have the same issue.

• I have tried the usual suspects... reloading and rebooting.

It is like there is a snapshot of my scene somewhere and its locked.
