[SOLVED] Can JavaFX realistically be used in a non-modular environment?

I've attempted to use JavaFX by following instructions found at:

https://openjfx.io/openjfx-docs/ under "JavaFX and IntelliJ" -> "Non-modular with Maven"

After completing steps 1 & 2 (Installation & Verification) I attempted to run a very simple program from IntelliJ rather than through the Maven plugin.

TraderWindow.java

public class TraderWindow extends Application {

    @SneakyThrows
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }

    @Override
    @SneakyThrows
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
        Scene scene = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("/TraderWindow.fxml"));
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();
    }
}

TraderWindow.fxml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.*?>

<GridPane maxHeight="-Infinity" maxWidth="-Infinity" minHeight="-Infinity" minWidth="-Infinity" prefHeight="400.0" prefWidth="600.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/10.0.2-internal" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1">
  <columnConstraints>
    <ColumnConstraints hgrow="SOMETIMES" minWidth="10.0" prefWidth="100.0" />
    <ColumnConstraints hgrow="SOMETIMES" minWidth="10.0" prefWidth="100.0" />
  </columnConstraints>
  <rowConstraints>
    <RowConstraints minHeight="10.0" prefHeight="30.0" vgrow="SOMETIMES" />
    <RowConstraints minHeight="10.0" prefHeight="30.0" vgrow="SOMETIMES" />
    <RowConstraints minHeight="10.0" prefHeight="30.0" vgrow="SOMETIMES" />
  </rowConstraints>
   <children>
      <Button mnemonicParsing="false" text="Button" />
   </children>
</GridPane>

However when I attempted to run it I got:

Exception running application com.trader.gui.TraderWindow

Process finished with exit code 1

The relevant part:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalAccessError: class com.sun.javafx.fxml.FXMLLoaderHelper (in unnamed module @0x6adc19e3) cannot access class com.sun.javafx.util.Utils (in module javafx.graphics) because module javafx.graphics does not export com.sun.javafx.util to unnamed module @0x6adc19e3

Which, I guess, is understandable since JafaFx is modularized and my application is not. In order to circumvent the problem I added this to VM path:

--add-opens javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.util=ALL-UNNAMED

I tried again, this time getting:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalAccessError: class javafx.fxml.JavaFXBuilderFactory (in unnamed module @0x4e342850) cannot access class com.sun.javafx.reflect.ConstructorUtil (in module javafx.base) because module javafx.base does not export com.sun.javafx.reflect to unnamed module @0x4e342850

And so I added another --add-opens directive... And then I repeated these steps 3 more times before giving up.

Is there another way of making JavaFX work with Java 11+ rather than modularizing the application or painstakingly adding --add-opens directives for each and every illegal access operation?
