Chemistry borgs require a lot of extra knowledge about Chemistry, and even then it can take a long time to prepare the chemicals you need. And even after you do, it's easy to go through them very quickly. In the absolute best case, where a chem borg has 100 units of smoke materials in 2 beakers, they have 5 shots of smoke before they're tapped. There's also a real problem with firing off your shots, too, since you have to manually pour them all into a 3rd beaker. That's slow in the best of times and can take an eternity if BYOND is feeling particularly shitty that day.
