I kinda like the idea, with some caveats.
Nanomachine implants are subject to not being EMP proof. A smart traitor will figure that if the station's first response is to give everybody robot superpowers, EMP gernades are now incredibly useful as a way to make nerds mad.
Tasers/electric shock also futz with nanobots because they are not electricity proof, effects can range from turning the little things off, to making them go unexpectedly haywire. Metal blades arm man has now become metal statue man. Guy who can make fireballs for elaborate cigerette smoking demonstrations has now become incredibly on fire. Electric shock man has now exploded because ark flash I guess. Basically tasers should have a risk of being much much more deadly for someone powered by tiny robots.
