Protecting equity vs protecting range

Hi all, I'm noob at PLO and was wondering how you guys feel about this spot as it is common in PLO. We want to protect our hand on the turn but by doing that my range is basically 100% draws on the river. How do we overcome this? The obvious answer is to just flat hands like this, but does that give up too much equity? I realise we do not do that great if we do get it in so maybe it is better to flat since we are protected on most rivers by the rest of our range?
