Why remove_niagara_emitter is rated Critical

Removing an emitter from a Niagara System deletes a VFX asset or component configuration that cannot be trivially restored without undo. While Unreal Engine editors typically support undo, the tool itself performs a destructive operation on game data/assets. The removal is irreversible at the tool's execution level (not reversible through the tool's parameters).

From the tool's definition Tool name 'remove_niagara_emitter' with description 'Remove an emitter from a Niagara System by name' — the verb 'remove' indicates irreversible deletion of a VFX component.
