I wish I could say, 'just kidding'.  (Joyce and Steve gasp in horripilation,
and need first aid).
You can have all kinds of technical support for production processes, but
sometimes someone discovers something that "works really slick" for a
problem, tells their coworkers, and they all start doing it without ever
realizing that there may be bigger issues they aren't aware of and they
should have gotten approval first.
We learned of this totally by accident, when implementing some lean
manufacturing techniques and controlling what tools are at their work space.
They told us they needed this pen back at their station when it was removed,
and we asked why...

The consensus seems unanimous about the danger.  Does anyone have any
technical references they can share to help me back this up?

I see you have several replies already. It's time to tell us all this is
joke.
