and, looking at the instructions, "it will be necessary to
remove any existing ceiling rose to allow clearance for
installation". Now I've done this before, but I still wake
up sweating at some of the bodges I did in my youth.
Can anyone tell me the safest way to connect all the
feeds without the rose and insulate them safely in the
ceiling space?

Move the rose to above the ceiling. Fit a pendant rose to the ceiling joist
above then pass just the pendant flex through the ceiling hole to the new
fitting.
