I can't understand if this is what you do for a living how you can not know you are cross threading a screw. You can tell so easy if it's being properly threaded just by the feel of it. Just one of the reason I like to do my own work besides the money I save and knowledge I gain.
The screws are there for a reason, I wouldn't go without having all hardware installed.
