Overpowering core of Low Power FPGA (1.2V instead of 1.0V)

I am using both EP4CE10F17C8LN with a 1.0V core voltage and the EP4CE10F17C8N with its core at 1.2V I wonder if there is any risk in powering the 8LN's core at 1.2V - The absolute maximum ratin...

Any specific reason why you would like to do that by the way? The EP4CE10F17C8LN is probably a die that has characteristics very close to a EP4CE10F17C7N, and IIRC they are at the same price. Other than logistics there shouldn't be any reason to want to run a 1V0 device at 1V2.
