why? because if he had just kind of flopped in whatever direction, he would have gone the other way. he just lost a giant hunk of metal that was attached to him, and one that he was very used to having and, specifically, compensating for the weight of. that thing looks heavy, in order to maintain his posture he would have had to get used to one side of him being heavier. with that weight gone, if he wasnt paying attention, he would have almost certainly overcompensated for it and fallen the other way, plus now that that side has an arm and the other doesnt, its heavier.
shiro went out of his way just to be in keiths arms.
