It's because they're alien watering cans.
I think it's a joke relating to how when they were implemented, watering cans were the largest "beaker" you could effectively use, and chem nerds would sometimes steal them from botany. With the addition of large beakers, this practice has all but died off, even if watering cans are still slightly larger.
Edit: Looking at the chem list, some of those chems are extremely rare to the point of where there's no method of even making then (Painbow fluid.), yet seeing as how artifacts are supposed to be filled with weird shit... it sorta works.
Also, I have no idea how to code in byond, but maybe add some sort of conditional where water won't be added to the beaker if fliptonium is added, or conversely, have it roll if water is or is not added, and if water is not added, then add the fliptonium.
