Why unifi_create_qos_rule is rated Medium

Creating a QoS (Quality of Service) rule is a write operation that modifies network traffic policies. It creates new configuration data but doesn't irreversibly delete or destroy anything. While it affects network behavior and could impact service quality if misconfigured, the reversibility (can be modified or deleted) and the confirmation requirement place it in the Write category rather than Execute or Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new QoS rule' - this is a data creation operation that modifies network configuration. The phrase 'Requires confirmation' indicates it's a reversible write operation rather than destructive.
