I think my fastener analogy would probably involve something more like trying to remove a screw that's been epoxied in. Or perhaps trying to do your own repairs on a Samsung phone.
It's not that the thing you're trying to do is stupid. It's probably entirely legitimate, and driven by a real need. It's just that the original designers of the thing you're trying to work on didn't give a damn about your ability to work on it.
