Sure, but if we are discussing digging a hole big enough for a ton of 
mercury, then taking apart a tightly integrated package seems worth 
considering.

I expect the packaging might be reasonable for this purpose.  After all, the 
designers probably wanted to keep that heat away from the electronics.
