Why add_poll_share is rated Medium

It's not Execute (doesn't run code), Destructive (doesn't delete), or Financial. Severity is medium because unauthorized sharing could expose poll data or voting information to unintended users, but the blast radius is contained to a single poll's access control.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'add_poll_share' and context 'Share a poll' indicate creating/modifying share permissions, which is a reversible data modification operation. Description is incomplete ('type=' with no value), limiting specificity.
