I agree that you don't want to spin a nut that you can't get to. Cutting holes in frame walls or multi-layer floor sheetmetal is never good. It compromises crash safety, gives rust a new place to start and will horrify the customer.
The blue threadlock on the bolt can be softened with mild heat (not nearly enough to endanger the carpet) to hopefully make removal possible. I lube the bolt well before reinstalling it as these vehicles seem to need new bushings every few years.
We see some real rust here on cars more than a few years old here as well.
