There is a cap/plastic guide on the inner bar, which I've unsuccessfully tried to pry out as you can see.

I have a disassembly mystery. How do I get this captive bolt out, to separate the two sliding bars? It's somewhat loosely held captive by the plastic slider lock mechanism, but does not rotate. I tried grabbing it with pliers and applying torque, but it just damaged the threads.pic.twitter.com/5JadZBFrQ1

Success! It was, in fact, just threadlocked hard into a captive nut. I just needed to apply enough torque.

Can you bind two nuts together on the exposed thread, and use those to try applying torque again?

(Not sure I’m entirely internalizing the angles that create the issue, probably because I’m tired, so this may not be a useful suggestion.)

Maybe it pushes down inward and becomes flush? ...maybe it'll only do that in a specific position in its travel?
