There is a product called "Never Seez" that is a type of grease that you can paint onto wheel studs and you will never again have that problem. I use it all the time on wheels, and brake discs, and other stuff that gets exposed to water and might someday have to come off.
Doesn't solve your problem, but prevents it from happening again. Oh, and yes, use a sledge hammer.
I agree with everything you are saying.
You call it "Never Seez".
The industry calls it "Anti-Seize" sold under many different names and labels. Google the word anti-seize.
Remove the cap and there is an application brush attached to it like this.

I use anti-seize compound on contact areas for brake rotors, alloy wheels, wheel hubs, and lug stems.....any such things that get badly corroded, that you want to come apart easy later.
