Wayne, you should be thankful it's under the pavers and not buried in concrete like my brother's pipe problem was. He decided to just cap off the bad section of pipe rather than bust up his new concrete.

I don't see why you couldn't use flex PVC.

In all 3 of the breaks that we've had this year, they have been in the very middle of a coupling of some sort, 1x coupling, 1x 45º, and 1x 90º. I think the couplings are stiffer and more brittle, but with a flexible PVC, the coupling may not experience enough stress to break.
