Oh, I completely missed this! I’m so sorry. Thanks so much for your help. The formatting got a bit wonky but I fixed it up as best as I could and ended up with this code:

add_action('acf/save_post', 'remove_att_from_att');
function remove_att_from_att($post_id) {
	$post_type = get_post_type($post_id);
		if ($post_type != 'attachment') {
			return;
		}
	$children = get_children($post_id);
		if ($children) {
			// remove filter so this filter does not run again
			remove_filter('acf/save_post', 'remove_att_from_att');
			foreach ($children as $child) {
				$child->parent = 0;
				wp_update_post($child);
			}
		// restore filter
		add_action('acf/save_post', 'remove_att_from_att');
		}
}

Which, unfortunately, didn’t work; the images still get attached every time I save a post. Did I make a mistake with my tweaks or is there something else missing?
