No use of rust inhibitor of any kind….check
Expanding foam…..check
Use of a wood saw….. check
Shaping filler with a plastic shopping bag…… check


Yup, if there’s a more hackneyed repair on the internet, I defy you to find it.

"Tremendous amount of structural integrity to build on"? Sure, and I'm the pope.

You refer to it as "hackneyed", whereas that's what I call "cheesedick".
 
When you put the foam in the rocker holes use some drywall tape in the wet foam for more rigidity. A hack body shop guy showed me that trick.
