seems to me this is WAY more complicated and involved than just boiling it up in solvent

Why not use dehydrating reagents? Are they too expensive? There is a new
kind of dehydrating reagent based on phosphorane compounds:

R3P=CZ2 + ROH + R"COOH -------> R3P=O + CH2Z2 + R'OOCR"

both byproducts can be washed away with whater.
