Terraform Configuration Files

resource "aws_redshiftserverless_namespace" "this" {
  namespace_name = "test"
}

resource "aws_redshiftserverless_workgroup" "this" {
  namespace_name = aws_redshiftserverless_namespace.this.namespace_name
  workgroup_name = "test"
  base_capacity  = 128
  max_capacity   = 256
}

Steps to Reproduce

Update terraform code like this:

resource "aws_redshiftserverless_namespace" "this" {
  namespace_name = "test"
}

resource "aws_redshiftserverless_workgroup" "this" {

}

After applying, the limit stays in place.
