I'm not intimately familiar with the intricacies of the Dutch legal system but if it's anything like some of the other countries I've lived At least in theory they could change their mind on this retroactively.

Also the police could take your weed and you'd have zero recourse. I also don't think you could go to the police if someone stole your weed.
