That screw could cause endless damage chaffing on cables, rubbing a hole in the chassis or body - may be best to take the fridge out again to retrieve it
It will always be in the back of you'd mind ........

I can live with it, if my OCD allows me.

Absolutely not, it's staying!!! Just changed the battery, reset the BMS, fiddled with a few CCF settings, had a mooch at some live values, replaced all the locking nuts, checked the torque on all of the nuts, washed the Pyrenean mud off Old-D and had a bit of a tidy up in both cars. That's enough strenuous exercise for me today.

Shame it's already dark. Plus exceeded my allowed tinkering time so SWMBO would put the kibosh on that.

Been almost a couple of weeks and the lost screw is stil in there.
However dropped a car key down the gap between the centre console and the seat and every time I touched it I knocked it back under the seat support. One torx thingie found, rear seat bolts removed, seat back lifted and key retrieved, that's enough disassembly for one month.

Has same issue until I realised it needed routed round the side to meet the socket where it was before I cut the fridge-end socket free.

Yes but............ that screw will by now be chaffing the cables
It must be so close to piercing the insulation, then a little bit of moisture and then, before long .....
