Hey, I'm about to cut an electric lawnmower in half.
Desperate times require desperate measures.

can be accomplished at high speed.)

2. Drip torch or propane weed burner. (and a cell phone to call 911)

Mmmm. No.
I barely got away with the 2 stroke 'whacker the first time.

3. Have the lot plowed/tilled and raked. Hopefully that'll disrupt the
established weeds and she'll be able to stay ahead of whatever comes back.

Yup. That's first prize. A full size rear-tine tiller would work a treat.
It wouldn't be admitted onto the property unless it was battery powered.

(Only slightly kidding.)

Of course, showing her this thread and telling her to stop being such a
PITA wouldn't be out of line either, but I sense that's not going to work.

You sense correctly.
