The only saw apparatus that I've seen on the LV site that might
produce cuts suitable for flooring is the mitre trimmer. It doesn't
exactly say, but viewing it online suggests to me that it's capable of
90° cuts.

Check out the miter boxes:

(professional)

BOTH of these should be able to produce square, smooth ends similar to a
quality (power) chop saw. They have up to 32 tpi blades available. The
work can be clamped on the "bed" of the saw. The saw is "captive" in the
guides. Assuming that the saw is accurate and not defective (same
assumption for any equipment), there is no reason these would not make
quick, quits, accurate cuts. They *are* manual saws, and if you do much
cutting, you will get tired and sweaty. You'll make more noise huffing and
puffing than the saw will make.
