I know they make some products for this, and I could glue some golf tees into the holes, but what I would like to see is a product that you could drive into the old stripped out hole that would be like the driveable dry wall anchors but it would provide a set of machine screw threads like a heli coil insert inside it once driven in.
Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

Any number of manufacturers make such an insert.

For small screws, I've inserted toothpicks to fill the hole then insert the screw. Holds good and it's tight too.
Never needed to do that on a hollow core door but ??
yep. Maybe throw in some wood glue, but not necessary.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

Well yeah, I like that, never heard of them before.
Actually more like the Rockler device only I would make the threads more aggressive (self driving) and drive in with Phillips instead of straight.
