I wrote that to give an idea, but I do not think that symlinks would
do the job either.

If it's symlinks, it does not change anything. If it's about settings
redirections everywhere, it will be a nightmare.

But I do not think that removing links that works for years would be
wise, and it does not solve the mirroring issue.
