Add micro inverters to load side of 12000xp

hello all,

Is there any reason I can't add panels with microinverters to the load side of my EG4 12000xp?

I have a pavilion quite a distance from the house that has some roof space for some extra panels I have laying around. It's too far to make it worth trenching DC runs, but it already has power run to it from the house that is fed from the load side of the 12000xp. Any reason I can't add ~2kw of panels with microinverters?

I understand it won't charge the batteries, but it would reduce the load on the inverter during the day and that would be nice.

The 12000xp is grid forming on the load side and micros are grid following, so I don't see why it wouldn't work.
