Pop'n Pills Factory clear/infestation quest bugged

I've gotten this building twice as a clear/infestation quest and have been unable to complete it both times. There's a room in the basement with a non-working switch, so the only way to open the door is with a pickaxe or an auger. Upon opening, there's a red dot on the compass signifying that a zombie is supposed to be inside but.. no zombie. Dug up the floor, dug into the wall - nothing.

 
Just ran into this today. Was very disheartening, but found out that if you destroy the button that you cannot press, the zombies spawn and you can complete the mission

 
The obvious fix, in my opinion, would be to make the switches used by devs in poi designs unbreakable, and to allow console commands that trigger quest events, like most games with quests have available. Those are standard solutions for every other game like this.

It's very much more complicated than that due to how this game is. The unbreakable part doesn't matter, if the switch is destroyed it triggers what it is supposed to trigger, but we got an overhaul pretty much how they work with the game save and whatnot, speaking in a very general manner (which is also why it's taking some time, small bandaids weren't cutting it). It should cover all of these cases.
