Cut out the piece and replace it. You'll have to glue it down probably bc no tongue

Don't do this. Laminate floors are "floating floors" . They are not attached to the sub floor for thermal expansion/contraction. Cutting the tongues and grooves off will keep it from locking into the pieces around it. Gluing the replacement piece down will keep it from moving with the rest of the floor. It will gap or buckle eventually.

I was thinking of a different type of floor

Yeah, would work for engineered hardwoods.
