Shouldn't... as that is the main reason for it being a 2-pole GFCI to begin with.

Yes, It needs the neutral on the line side but not the load side. The breaker has a white wire that must be connected to the neutral bar whether or not a neutral is used in the circuit. I believe the breaker needs the neutral for the electronic to work.

That is also my understanding as well.
