No downsides to simple root. And lets say you flash Freshrom it comes with wifi teather and sprint apps removed.
do you mean full root with "NAND" unlock, cause alot of your custom ROMS will not work right with out being "NAND" unlock because they write to the NAND

Yes it will work just fine. Just watch along with the video as you do it. And follow the video to a tee. (like the window with say press any key but in fact you want to wait for your phone to reboot before you press any key. But dont worry if anything happened to go wrong you can just start over at step 1 without any harm to your device.
