It probably means payload will have to be sacrificed on furute missions so that there is enough gear for a spacewalk for such a repair mission.

That would be my guess

From what I understand these tiles were not all the same size, plus you would need the proper equipment to get out there

From what I read it was not possible for the columbia to even dock at the station.
