Mixing 14 and 15 gauge spokes on drive side?

I stupidly threw a chain into the rear spokes. Older 36-spoke Fiamme tubular wheel. 9 damaged spokes on the drive side (every other one).

Well I replaced those 9 spokes with 14 gauge instead of the 15 gauge that makes up the rest of the wheel. I can't really think of a reason to undo my work tonight and get 15 gauge spokes. Can you? That's a 0.2mm difference in diameter.
