If that's not an option, as far as I know, getting glued and nailed subfloor up easy is impossible. Haven't seen an option yet that avoids removing it a square inch at a time.

That made me laugh so hard my wife thought I lost my marbles .....
and ironically, you are probably right - that is the single worst, back breaking, frustrating work you can do in a reno.
If there is ANY way to overlay and level the floor - that may be the best option, although that could impact your rise height on any adjacent stairs - so there is that to consider.
You also don't want to end up with a 3" thick floor of multiple sub floor layers.
Get a pry bar, skill saw and a bag cocaine - strip down to your underwear, put on some techno music and turn the heat up to max - without sleep, and doing lines every 20 minutes, you could have it done in 5 maybe 6 days. Just like College - same thing really.
Problem is the coke will cost you 20 grand .... so maybe just cheaper to hire it out. (and you don't risk dying of a heart attack or getting arrested)
