Think about an extreme example where the gyro very far from the axis of rotation. Its a yaw rate sensor where the amount of rotation is determined by integrating the angular acceleration. You can indirectly compensate for the increased acceleration by changing your mv/deg/s constant, but you will reduce the maximum deg/sec you can measure before you out pace its ability to keep up.
