I agree with your points here 100 percent. And you answer your own questions in your last two paragraphs: doing this too rapidly might create an economic and social shock that would be hard to survive. Slow is better, but moving towards global free trade and movement is a long-term goal that must always be kept in mind.
As with many libertarian goals, immediate implementation is not always a good idea, but the objective should be to make sure that any incremental movement takes you toward your eventual goal, and not away from it.
Bad ideas: immediate shutdown of Social Security and public schools.
Good ideas: incremental movements in the right direction. Allow some of Social Security money to be invested privately by the recipient (NOT by the government.) Use vouchers and other mechanisms to encourage alternatives to public schools.
