I am unable to copy the SAM file out of that shadow copy path without becoming local admin. My regular user account cannot do it. So this might be overblown unless my environment is not standard somehow.

I had the same issue. I am wondering if this wasn't a mess up on the OP's computer configuration. I have checked older systems that have been upgraded repeatedly as well. None have the issue.

The vuln only affects specific versions/builds of W10. Is yours one of the affected versions?
