Some sabotage missions have cells that players picks up, these can be coolant cells, fuel cells, toxin cells, etc.

After completing the sabotage goal, such cells often remain unnecessary objects on the mission, although players can take the cells with them, they will not give anything. Also, during sabotage with a reactor, it is usually the coolant cell that remains, because when used, its mission is longer than with a fuel cell, and players do not receive any reward for completing a longer mission. 
However the reactor fuel of a capital ship or the cooling of the reactor of such a ship should have a high cost, so it is possible to make that when leaving a mission with such a cell in their hands, players receive an additional reward in the form of credits, for example, 100,000 for fuel cell and 50,000 for coolant cell. This would be a nice passive source of income for new players who can't play solo or don't even have access to an Index, and will also give a reason to go through a longer version of sabotage.

Thoughts:

My theory is that these are primitive and lazy techniques in the game's code intended to prevent mission bugs such as capsules falling into the void or capsules getting stuck in inaccessible areas.

This variant capsule mechanic is interesting but unexplored, most of the time the player chooses to do the faster mode because there is no obvious incentive or reason to make the player activate the longer mission mode.
