That is the plan.
The truss calcs should show where all mandatory blocking/ bracing, must be installed. If you didn't get the truss engineering pages with your plans I would ask for them from the builder.
If they're on the blueprints you prob need them. But you may be able to re-engineer them.
I re read your post.
If you only remove the last tie, you should be ok.the wall has bracing so that truss is fine and the the rest are still tied together so they are fine.
It's not something I want to do anywhere but in this case I think you should be ok.
But definitely look at the truss calcs, better yet post them here so we can look at them
Truss calculations do not say anything about being tied together at all.
When they installed the truss they do it as a whole unit all at once. With winches and cables on each post. I think the 2x4's are there to keep them going up as a unit.

Update
They should be done today.

That'll be nice in winter. Gonna do a woodstove or some other heater?
I agree,
The bottom catwalk runs on these trusses typically is part of the design and in snow country is needed. "Typically" the truss engineer will have these drawn in so that the building inspector knows what to look for, in my experience there are a few runs connecting the lower chords of the trussed together to stabilize them. If they assembled the trusses together on the ground and hoisted them up there is a good chance that some of that is not needed. You'll need the stamped engineering plans to know what is needed.
30'X40' sounds awesome, I'm envious.
Going to get a gas one.
Running a gas line when I do electricity.
Skip the Mr heater, and go with a reznor.
Not sure what you have picked out. Just throwing that out there lol. Wish I'd have done that my self.
I'm going to get a regular house one, for a small house, and mount it with ductwork when I replace mine.

The one I wanna get is a ceiling mount it's a long half a tube with a little fan in the end.
Little things in life 
It does look little in there
@kgblazerfive has heard that before...
Mezz is up, joists need to be nailed all the way still. Moved a bunch of stuff in it.
Its a bit fuller now
Not sure where both the projects are going to reside though.
Only thing left to put in there is the welder, and the tube bender.
