Surface Laptop Studio easily stripped screws

Was trying to install a new memory card into my Surface, but the two side screws stripped incredibly easily, after just 2 turns. Any advice? Additionally, the screws being hidden under the rubber feet and metallic tape is a pain, especially considering they don't re-stick easily and Microsoft doesn't offer replacement feet.

    This is a design flaw, and it's a shame that Microsoft doesn't offer interchangeable feet. Perhaps you could try using adhesive pads or something similar to glue the feet back on after removing them.
