Two wrongs do not make a right, to clarify I don't really care about the closure if NPWS has deemed it as such then so be it...but if you undertake to remove the bolts it should be done with best practice and angle grinding them off so a stub remains is not best practice. Note I'm going off picture above...have they all been done the same way?

It takes a little longer to do it right, and if your removing bolts to fix a wrong I think it should be done right, ie drilled out and hole patched and covered to camouflage hole.
