Why not get a profesional gardener with a root grinder to come and
grind up as much of the root as possible in situ, and just garden on
what's left of the roots?

I think he's talking about chaenomeles 'japanese quince' rather than a
quince tree - would a root grinder work on a mass of roots and soil, as
opposed to a single large tap root?
