The document you linked states:
submits documentary evidence of the existence of unforeseeable and
imperative reasons for entry.
The word imperative means “of utmost importance”, which this is not – you simply want the convenience of not being “trapped” on international territory during your stopover.
So I’m afraid you would have to sleep in the transit area of the airport. There is a Mercure Hotel as well as the Yotel to choose from, both located in the non-Schengen zone and starting at €85-90 (although of course, the airline will pay for it if you miss your connection due to your Inbound flight being delayed).
