The actual hub chip is directly opposite the LED on the PCB. This scares the shit out of me - I'm afraid I'll be heating the LED leads and the chip is gonna fall off or something.

Is that a legit concern, is there a particular technique I need to use to protect the rest of the board?

Or do I need to give up entirely, crush it with a pair of pliers, and cut the leads short?
