Stuck screw on the home button

Hello everyone! I am a teenager looking to repair this old iPhone as a side project. I was able to get the phone open and screen removed easily. I was even able to remove the three 1.3 mm screws on the home button bracket (outlined in this ifixit image with red circles)

However, the screw directly over the home button (AKA the single 1.1 mm screw, outlined in red) wont budge. It isnt stripped and looks healthy. However, no matter how much pressure I apply using my tri point driver (being conscious to not overdo it to protect the sensitive cable beneath) i can’t seem to get the screw to spin.

Any solutions? I read on reddit that i could bend the shield and spin it to remove the screw, but with the extremely fragile cables going on underneath, that is not something that sounds safe. I do not want to end up with a stripped screw either.

Thanks in advance everyone.
