## Why meta_ads_ads_pause is rated Medium

This tool modifies the status of an ad from active to paused. This is a reversible write operation — the ad can be unpaused at any time. It does not delete data or move money directly, though misuse could halt ad delivery and indirectly affect ad spend. Severity is medium due to potential business impact of inadvertently pausing live campaigns.

From the tool's own definition: "Pauses a single ad by setting its status to PAUSED"
