Would you say that removing the O2 sensors once the engine is hot is a good alternative to using a torch in that area for rusted on sensors?

Thanks for the feedback
I doubt much improvement with hot engine. My truck was 16-17 years old when I swapped O2 and the post cat wrestled out without much difficulty and the pre cat knocked out with the small impact (less than 220 ft·lb).
Milwaukeee just came out with a stubby version of their impact based on their M12 battery that has 250 ft·lb which is more than the compact M18 but is almost an inch and a half shorter front to back at less than 5".
They also came out with a mid torque 600 ft·lb model that is much smaller than the 750-1100 ft·lb beast.
