I was thinking about pa30, and thought that maybe if you get into the void (easy from the starting room) and head for the 'seam', you could wake the shooter and by placing yourself in the corresponding locations, you could get it to misdirect attacks onto the Romero head.
However, I've no idea if this even has a chance of working. Do telescratches only hit their intended target? Even if the monsters think you are actually sitting on top of Romero, can their attacks hurt him (I tried noclipping into there, and couldn't make that happen). So maybe you also need to be at just the right height, and such a location may not exist, barring some huge fluke. Still a dream demo of the highest order, of course.
As for pa02, I think AdamW has tried this quite a lot, but never got through the BK area. He also said that it was pointless even to try to skip the blue armour, and so the glide isn't especially useful.
Phml: pa02 is murder slow or fast, with the underground area the worst part, partly because you can't provoke much infighting until you are in thick of it. It's undone because no one can (so far) do it, not because people don't want to use a slow approach.
