Now I like that.
Its one of those things that makes you say, "Why didn't I think of that?"
Just 2 caveats.
1) You lose 1/4" of sawblade depth and,
2) I don't think I'd rely on the double stick tape to hold it down, when
raising the blade.
After the slot is cut the double stick will probably work fine.
But while cutting the slot I think additional *down* pressure would be
required.
Hell, if you use a piece of 24" wide hardboard, and move it over about 1"
each time you cut a new slot......it would last quite awhile.
Don't underestimate the tape. I've taped aluminum blocks to milling machine
tables for milling. Never had one come loose. Clean the table first. The wax
that most have on their table doesn't promote adhesion.

Yep.
I'd try it.
But I'd also be ready for a 2nd means too.

I like this one. It's a fast & cheap alternative for those
times when my ZCI's slot is too long and I need to cross
cut HW ply with those infernally thin skins.
Thanks.
