The rifling on a Foster or Brenneke slug is designed to collapse to allow it to pass through a choke. That it also imparts a spin is a bonus; these slugs are stabilized by being nose-heavy, like a badminton shuttle.
The only chokes that can't be used with slugs are some of the extra-full "turkey" type chokes. I think that if a full choked barrel has failed from a slug going through it, the real cause is likely a bore obstruction. When rifled slugs were introduced, most shotguns had full choke barrels and most gun owners only had one shotgun that they used for everything; dedicated slug guns were unheard of until the 1950s, when Ithaca introduced the Deerslayer.
Open chokes are commonly recommended for use with slugs because they are most likely to provide the best accuracy, not because they are required. That said, my 870 with a smoothbore slug barrel is more accurate with the modified choke installed than improved cylinder.
