Fantastic!

This could also use Neelix and Tuvok (though far less infamously).

After all his work trying to get Tuvok to crack a smile throughout the show, Neelix pushes Tuvok to go back to medical and have his happiness removed so he can go back to being the tactical officer in S06E06.

His happiness is still there. Vulcans still have emotions. They literally depend on a kind of stocicism, though, to not be overwhelmed by them. It's been implied a few times that a vulcan can literally die from experiencing their emotions full blast long enough. And I can kinda vibe with that, personally.

Yeah maybe I should have said "pushed him to return to being someone he physically no longer was."

The parallel between these episodes is really strong, and with nary a mention of Tuvix in season 6.
