I used this strategy once. It lasted over a year (at a big tech company).

In case this isn't an April fool's joke, severance is typically paid during layoffs.
It's not something that is typically paid out when someone resigns.
PTO is your severance

Genius move by companies. “We offer unlimited PTO to our employees.” Employee accepts. Handbook says “While we offer unlimited PTO for our employees, it is up to the approval of your manager. We recommend xx days for this level” and so on.

Yes, tell them you're being let go because of whatever reason your resigning, and you resigning is simply taking the initiative
