Risky to purge multiple workspaces in TFS?

If workspaces are owned by the project collection service account on TFS, are there any risks of deleting them? There was a bug in a custom TFS Build script that caused workspaces with checkouts to stay on the server, and not sure if deleting those will cause any breaking errors.

Install tfs sidekicks and you can the delete them cleanly. Roll back any checkouts and then delete the workspaces. The build server will create loads of workspaces over time so it's worth housekeeping monthly / bimonthly depending on your build loads.

You can undo the checkouts and delete the workspaces. I don't think it will cause any breaking issues.
