The FCP clamps to the panel they are going to remove, but it leaves space for the 32 (?) screws to back out. The screw heads are accessed through holes that are too small for the screws to pass through.
The sticky pads hold the panel in the middle of the FCP area, whilst mechanical latches grip the outside of the panel.
The combined FCP and panel will come away as one unit with the screws trapped between.

Out comes the Mini Power Tool. The MPT is being used to remove the remaining fasteners (yes, there are 32).
Also there is no need to provide a means for replacing the 32 fasteners as a replacement cover is available. However this replacement cover will not be needed if install of the CEB-R (CEB Replacement) goes well.

Nice catch! There's quite a bit of banter going on. Helps relieve tension I guess!
