Bear in mind that unlike on some other question and answer sites, the "Works for me" reaction is not restricted to the author of the question. Anyone can add that reaction, whether they posted the question or not. You can also add that reaction to more than one answer to the same question.

This lack of exclusivity means that the reaction is just general feedback, rather than being a unique distinguishing mark. Seeing that reaction should not put other people off from posting an answer of their own.

Since it is not final, there is no reason to delay the reaction. If the answer works for you, feel free to add the reaction.
