Freeze mode ships the branch as static geometry captured at the export frame, with no warning, because that is what you asked for.

Require Live is the opposite and is really a tripwire: it does nothing while the branch runs live, and fails the export loudly if a later edit would quietly turn its animation into a frozen snapshot. That is a guard against losing motion without noticing.

Either way the editor previews the branch live, so nothing changes about how you work.
