I know you (@Mad Honk) know that already, but it can't be repeated too often!
Thanks for the reminder! I have destroyed probably ten Campy record hubshells to remove FW's that had the spokes cut to get the hub. The good part is the axles, cones and races were saved. But too many mechanics take the quick but bad method of just cutting the hub out with the FW still on. BTW; the FW was pretty tight, I had to use a cheater bar to break it free. Smiles, MH
