Why create_disk_offering needs a policy

This tool creates a new disk offering resource, which is a reversible operation—disk offerings can be modified or deleted later.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_disk_offering' and description 'Create disk offering' indicate creation of a new resource (disk offering configuration) in CloudStack infrastructure.
