It's entirely irrelevant. The game rules do exactly what you asked for, and gadget rules are not about "simulating" magic items. The source of power, whether it's yourself or the item, doesn't matter, so long as the combination of you + item = ability.
That is to say, gadget limitations do not assume the power is in the gadget. They just assume that with the gadget, you have the power. That's especially true for the Can Be Stolen limitation with the "will not immediately work for the thief" element.
