Because on that side, all you have filling the hole is the brake bolt itself, not the recessed nut on the exterior. So it will move, unless you make a modification, like using one of those curved alloy brake spacers on that side..
I've done it from the front using the method in post #4 here and a short bit.

Kind of slow but there isn't that much to remove.
I also agree this isn't the frame to do it to.
I'll bite my tongue on going in from the rear seeing as you didn't mention nuns
