What is the point of CNC machined screws? I have only seen that type of thing on specialized military applications and the like.

I'm sure standard rolled screws would be just fine...

I had the exact same thought. The screws are recessed, so knurling is unimportant. I love the idea and will buy some for the cars but give me a stainless m5, hex cap head screw, I don’t care about the process.
