What delete_delivery_customization does on Shopify Graphql

Why delete_delivery_customization is rated Critical

While not as critical as deleting customer data or orders, deletion of business-critical shipping configuration rules cannot be undone and could disrupt order fulfillment operations if invoked incorrectly by an AI agent. This meets the Destructive category (delete, drop, purge) rather than Write (reversible modifications).
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'delete' and description states 'Delete a delivery customization rule', indicating irreversible removal of configuration data.
