How do evangelical universalists reconcile their position with the designation for Judas that it would be better if he had never been born?

By "evangelical" in this context I am referring to those with the common evangelical view that the Bible is the word of God and inerrant in the autographs.
The idea that Judas might be ultimately saved would be required to hold to universalism, but it seems irreconcilable with the idea that he would be saved and yet be one of whom woe is pronounced and that it would be better for him not to have been born. ([Matthew 26:24](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+26:24&version=ESV) , [Mark 14:21](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+14:21&version=ESV))
