I've done two European Deliveries and never had an issue. I used dental floss to remove the front plate and then GooGone to remove the strong adhesive.
I understand where you're coming from, and considered this as well - however, the damage is not behind where the adhesive was (which was a single strip of double sided 3M tape) and this was actually behind the middle/bottom of the front ED plate. Additionally, the damage is not consistent with the damage that would be incurred from simply yanking the Ed plate off without using gentle heat and/or floss... it's down through the clear and paint to the damn plastic, and is consistent with something hitting it when the plate was not mounted on the car.
