This Hozan set is only $17. It's not that much money to have the correct tools for the job.
I do like your idea about swapping them, though.
Exactly right but I think it’s too late for this screw. The left-handed drill bit idea is the best choice IMO.

This is well known in many forums and circles for older Jap bikes. There are many JIS driver sets are available on amazon, along with other impact driver JIS sets. While Philips bits are not reccomended on JIS screws, a Philips impact driver usually has no problem removing these screws.
You'll want some JIS screwdrivers. There's lot of "phillips" screws on those bikes, but if you try and use your trusty old phillips driver on them, you'll strip them out in a heartbeat.

Your screws are not Philips screws they a Japanese industrial standard or JIS. They look the same but the angles are different and will strip if a Philips is used. Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Hozan-JIS-4-JIS-Screwdriver-3rd/dp/B00A7WAHTU
Do you have recommendations on where to buy? Found these, but they have mixed reviews:

Also, while your replacements won't have the same heads likely, shimano "phillips" screws are actually JIS, in the event you weren't aware.

Something like that will help prevent them from stripping.
You can do it yourself. The rebuild part itself is very easy, requiring the right parts, basic tools, ability to follow directions, and patience. The hardest part is going to be removing and reinstalling the carbs in the bike.
Here's what you need:
After rebuilding, you may or may not need new carb insulator boots. Your old ones will likely either be hard as rocks or will have cracks that leak air.
I own the same bike as you and have rebuilt the carbs without previous carb experience. If you have questions, PM me and I'll help how I can.
I highly highly highly suggest a JIS cross point no. 2. The philips head no 2 can easily damage the screws used from the factory.

The PA unit is under the filter board. No soldering needed to remove it. Just a lot of screws and multi pin connections. I suggest a camera to keep track.
I also suggest a high quality thermal paste like the following:

Here's the shim kit
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000UKM6LG/ref=ppx_yo_mob_b_old_o0_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1
measure the shim before you put it in. You will be doing extra work if you replace a shim only to discover it's the wrong size after install when you're double checking everything.
Found the link, looks like I got most of it. There's other good stuff though.

Edit
These.
Just get a full set; your future self will thank you (can't find the exact one, but it was similar to this one on amazon)
Use left twist drill bits. If you're lucky they'll bite in and twist the screw out. Get JIS screwdrivers, strip less screws.
Oh man, I had no clue the screws were different. Good heads up!
More stuff to research :)
Quick Amazon search turned up this set:
JIS-4 JIS Screwdriver Set (New 3rd. Gen) (Japan Import)
And sounds like a bearing kit is easiest to put in now, will definitely add this upgrade to the list.
You'll want a small (#0 or #00) JIS crosspoint driver like these. If you're careful, you can use a small phillips, but do so at your own risk.

It's an old Jap bike. So you are going to actually need a JIS screwdriver to get it apart without doing damage to anything. Most hardware stores won't know what the f you are talking about. Might need to overnight one from amazon if you are serious about getting into it. This is the set you will need, you will also need a very small and high quality flathead.

Here's the carb.

Have you tried a JIS driver?
