Once the blade has pushed away the insulation you can speed up the blade and work your way over to the elevator bolt shaft. At this point... it's zip zip and the bolts are cut.

Steve, okay I'm finally with yall!
Neat! What I wasn't picturing was the 9" long flexible blade. In my mind the machine wouldn't be able to get in close enough to the work but with a long blade I see your point. Pun intended.
So this method would work even for removing whole sheets of flooring. I just need to get in close enough to the screw from below to hit it with the blade. Very good!
