In "Space Cadet" they devote a couple of paragraphs to spinning and de-spinning the PRS Randolph.

Certainly not impossible. You've summarized the alternatives neatly. As an engineer, I'd still prefer to avoid all of them if I could.
In the movie version of "The Martian" I recall the opening between the spin and non-spin sections was quite large. You could look (and step) through easily.
