  • Pozi-drive is my general screwhead of choice - and seems to be the most widely available in shops. I've never really considered Torx for general use. Phillips looks a bit cleaner to my mind but less easy to use. Hadn't realised the 'can't over-torque' thing was a design feature.

    It isn't, that's an urban legend. Pozidrive was designed to be more resistant to cam-out than Phillips, but cam-out is a bug rather than a feature in all the common screw heads.
