Exactly. Maybe this is why Ike thinks this is such a tough job. You remove the plate, and pull out the shaft. There are two sides of the shaft that the plate goes between. Just hack one of those sides off with the dremel. Put the plate back in, and throw in some countersunk screws. Voi-la, optimized T/B.
