You need to remove the keyboard too otherwise you will miss the 2 screws underneath!
this is a terrible guide, you unlatch the ribbons in the prior step with screws.

I am looking into buying one of these but looking at your pictures I can't find the SSD. Is it user upgradeable?
under the rubber pads can be, or are? the bottom pads are much more secured.

2 of them. The 2 near the screen hinges. They release the keyboard.
