Tri Shoes for LD?

So, I ordered a pair of triathlon shoes "by accident," because I didn't realize they were tri-specific until after I did it.

However, besides liking the color better than my alternative, I feel like they will be not just "fine" but might even work better for me. They have additional ventilation, which will be great for me in Summer, or for riding in rain.

I've searched all over BF and the only real drawbacks mentioned are in the road forum, where they talk about sprinting or climbing out of the saddle. I tend to do neither.

So, I'm thinking this is a non-issue, but am I missing anything?

What I ordered:
