Bottom line is just try it.
If it works, it works. if it doesn't, it doesn't (probably because of a GFCI).
As a career EE I can tell you there will be no harm either way.
As a career EE, you should know that "if it works, it works" is bad advice for electrical things. Working and working safely are too different things entirely. You didn't address the legitimate open neutral concern. Granted, the odds of a molded cord like the one in the link failing in that way is slim.
