Yes. It's your project, your investment. You will learn. If you have no oldschool background/infrastructure/knowledge for PLC then don't use it. These's a saying AT: "everybody cooks with water". Just take a peek at the IO protection, decide if it's good enough for your usecase or that you maybe want e.g. optocoplers and current loop for IO. If it's "expensive" to go on size and repair stuff then choose prebuilt hardware where you cn blame somebody else than you.
