Ez-outs work just fine on bolts that are broken from "over tightening" - anything that is seized or corroded is unlikely to move with them

I agree with what you have said. In my experience you have to be really careful not to damage the old threads and if that ez-out breaks in the screw, you're screwed!!! See what I did there...
