I've no experience with Erasure on VMWare vSAN... but I know that it's production worthy and safe with S2D. It gives you the same resiliency but more efficient capacity. I believe it's nothing more than just an algorithm... so I can't see it being any less safe/efficient when used with a different product.
I do know that all flash = better efficiency.
It actually should do much better one. For some reason MSFT decided to cut off own balls and stop with double parity which is one linear parity sum and one global parity, while it was possible to make N => M e/c, same way as Azure and Ceph does.
