Why GOOGLESUPER_CLEAR_VALUES is rated Critical
Clearing cell content is irreversible data deletion - once values are cleared, the original data cannot be recovered through the tool itself. While formatting and notes are preserved, the actual data content is permanently removed, making this a Destructive action. The blast radius is high as a misconfigured range could wipe large amounts of spreadsheet data across potentially important business records.
