Drywall screws that miss the stud - action?

DIY here and first build. So most information is appreciated.
I have several screws that missed the mark due to a bow usually.
These are exterior walls with batt insolation and a vapor barrier.

Do I...

A) Pull out the missed screws?
B) Leave them in ?

My concern is the following ..

A) They will leave an empty hole now in my vapor barrier (Allowing moisture though)
B) Leaving them in might pop over time affecting the drywall surface.

Give me your thoughts.

Cheers
