Well, I solved it! Unfortunately, I had to sacrifice my housing. I used metal grinder to get the screw out. Thankfully, nothing in the phone was damaged, but i didn’t care about that because I swapped my motherboard into my parts iPhone.

i guess now you have to drill and remove the screw and get a pair of new screws

What size the drill bit should be?

Use a scalpel or a sharpish knife obviously with great care try to find a sweet spot on the screw that the knife will go into and gently try turning it that way, once u have a bit out try using pliers to turn it out…

U could also try pressing the screwdriver really hard/firmly and turning as u push…

Never needed to drill a screw out before

Stick the phone in the freezer for some time it should contract the metal and make it easier to remove.

after trying everything suggested by the youtube video in @soumya's comment to no avail, i drilled out the pentalobe screw very carefully with the smallest bit i had on hand (0.04"). slow and steady did the trick- there's nothing too fragile right behind the screw so it is possible to drill it out without damaging anything else.
