As mentioned above NEVER cut along the tongue as if it is glued down it will just disintegrate when you try to rip it up
The last re-wire I did with weetabix floors , I cut a rectangle hole between the joists with a multi-tool and then used some off cuts of 4x2 and screwed to the sides of the joists and then put the bit back in the hole or cut a new out of some 22mm ply board.
Took blooming ages this way but no damages to the ceilings and once the carpets went back you would never know I had been.
