## Why pipedrive_update_lead is rated Medium

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Update an existing lead in Pipedrive' which modifies data reversibly. Server description confirms 'full CRUD operations' are supported. The 'update' operation is characteristic of Write category tools."
