It's best to ask Garmin directly, but rather safe, the only thing you may encounter are small mistakes regarding grinding the watch. Introducing percentages is great.

In case of Garmin product, it's not even safe to use the official firmware. Besides, it's a beta for a reason.

What do you mean by safe? Will it be bug free? This is unknown and the reason Garmin has it as a beta so willing users can test it and report any bugs before an official FW version is released. Will it brick your watch? No. And if you encounter any bugs in the beta, you should report them and you have the option to revert back to the last official FW.
