Every item or tool lost in low Earth Orbit has the potential to pose a hazard when the item or tool collides with something moving.
Here are some reasons why Astronauts should not dispose of Gadgets in space:
Environmental limitations
Space is an environment that does not experience gravity, and particles in space travel at very high speeds.

Under these conditions, the astronaut’s remaining hands or tools would float on the blade, making the strain and the possibility of self-transport impossible.
Limitations of tool development
Most of the tools used by humans on earth are ineffective in outer space, because they do not function in empty ground that does not experience gravity.
For example, an astronaut who tries to drop a cosmos crusher in a space chamber with his hands encounters an impossibility because there is no gravity to stop the particles from dividing.
