I'm pretty sure that's not how it works. It isn't like pushing two magnets 
together, where if you just squeeze hard enough, you overcome the 
resistance. There's no interaction between the fermions keeping them apart - 
rather, there's no pair of paths that both end at the same place that don't 
cancel each other out.

It's like waves, I guess. No matter how hard you try, you can't combine 
sin(t) and -sin(t) and wind up with a wave. It's not a matter of squeezing 
them real hard - they just cancel out.
