1:33 couldn't you just have dabbed on some flux on top of the chip, heat it with an air gun, and allow the flux to melt letting the chip easily fall into place because of surface tension?
It's not easy to see, but it was covered in flux. There is a small puddle of it under the board when it's lifted too. I use a flux pen, it's like a marker. You "paint" the area in flux. I agree though. I probably should have used more. The chip did "spring" itself into place eventually. I never did test the board though.
4:20 for the action
