If I can just cut the shrubs down to current ground level and then
bury them in a foot or so of dirt without worrying that they'll show
up again in a few years, that sure would beat trying to remove all of
the "stumps".

That'll depend on the kind of shrub. Like someone said, it's the genes.
Some things like wisteria or honeysuckle could come back fairly easily,
others like arbor vitae won't. I know the vines are genetically far
removed from arbor vitae grin.
