    Explanation:

    Hello,

    During the laboratories, a high dexterity is required, thus, such accessories, when you move or change your duty, could touch other materials or act out of your control resulting in spillages and constricting your proper movements and skills, that is why considering the lab safety policy, we must take those artifacts away from the chemistry lab.

    Best regards.
