I've done the following several times when the wheel I was removing was to be scrapped. Using a cut-off wheel, cut parallel to the splines thru the hub of the SW. Don't cut all the way through or you will bugger up some of the splines. Take care not to cut into the housing also. Then pry apart the SW hub at the cut(twisting action on the pry bar(I admit it, a screwdriver with a wrench on it) is easier on the column), the little remaining metal will break. It may take several cuts, but it will get the SW off and save the splines. File the mushroomed head back to round(if necessary) and run a die down it. BTW, thanks for the reply on the M43.
