The ARB saddle clamp set screws aren't actually in the subframe, they're in a bracket above it with the thread exposed. They won't "snap" if removed using the proper technique. But if you fear this, then do you fear the same may happen with the lower arm rear bush housing bolts too?
I have just removed and replaced these items on both sides of the car. Nothing snapped and no damage was done to the subframe.  Good luck Alan, when the time comes.

You are incorrect in your assumptions. Previous concerns of mine have been related to your advice and guidance as fact based upon your 'evidence' regarding some other areas of these cars (in particular but not limited to the timing belt).
As I stated, you claimed to have the time, and your dismissal of these common and accepted practices is in this thread (and your reasoning, you do not need to repeat)
