Personally I wouldn’t worry about helicoiling or timeserting it. The end result will be a stronger thread than the original. We used to ‘pre-helicoil’ the brackets on DD bikes, to reduce the chances of stripping the thread during frequent tyre/wheel changes at the track, where engineering is more difficult than the workshop.
