2lb is a lot more than a usual flush bottle and then there is heat from the engine involved. I cant say if that changes the effects or not. Call me over cautious but with some heater cores needing 8+ hrs to change and some radiators needing the nose to be pulled I rather not be to too confident that its harmless.
IMO a simple neutralizing flush is dirt cheap and only takes a few min, no harm and peace of mind.
