When my sister bought a couch, it wouldn't fit and so the building super "helped" her by ripping half of it to pieces in order to get it into her apartment. Then she made me put it all back together, which was rather challenging. At least the upholstery was still in one piece.

I'll have my revenge years from now when my sister wants to get rid of the couch. She'll try to break it up again and she'll realize that I put it together using heavy-duty screws rather than the little nails that the factory had used. That thing is not coming apart again.

Screws are better for removal/replacement than nails, unless they're stripped. And she's gonna be doing it in the apartment where she can see what she's doing. She should thank you

So strip the heads next time? No problem. Pretty sure he can handle that
