The GE Microcassette machines I've seen (and I even owned one
back in the 80s) were rim drive, so playing the tapes back with a
constant-speed regular cassette deck might introduce its own
problems. Also, the tape is extremely thin, so a cassette deck
which introduces too much tension before and after the headstack
might damage the tape.
FWIW.
