I can't say if your idea will work, and I am not prepared to set up a scenario to test it - maybe someone else will be prepared to do that.
When someone's in a hole I don't throw them a spade to dig a deeper hole, I throw them line and haul them out of the hole. I've given you a solution for cleaning up 'libraries-in-an-dreadful-mess' that has been used to recovered 'messed up libraries' by many users in the past. That's all I am prepared to do.
