## Why hires_update_question is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data (question definitions) in a recruitment system. The modification is reversible (updates can be undone or revised further). It does not delete irreversibly (not Destructive), does not execute arbitrary code (not Execute), involves no financial transactions (not Financial), and does not merely read data (not Read).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name includes 'update' and description explicitly states 'Update text, type, or options of an existing question definition' — modifies question configuration reversibly."
