RISK

Why reorder_post_type_fields is rated Medium

The tool updates post type field ordering (sortOrder), which modifies the structure/metadata of the system. This is a Write operation (reversible modification of configuration data), not a Read (no query-only), Execute (no code/command execution), Destructive (sortOrder changes are reversible), or Financial operation.

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'Reorder fields on a post type' and 'sortOrder is updated to match', indicating it modifies the configuration/schema of a post type by changing field ordering. This is a reversible data modification operation.
