Then again, I might be misunderstanding how the badges work. Perhaps the page protection only extends to the page itself- like when the edit button is clicked, it allows the user to edit the page's text. I guess the actual badge image file can't be edited the same way. I suppose it would make sense if the badges could only be changed by admins, that's what I had thought at first. When I saw the that the protection could be changed,  I guess I got the wrong idea.
