A poignant truism.
Having worked on projects alongside teams of gruff chippies from many geographic origins butchering pre-fab exhibition stands together within unrealistic timeframes cut even shorter by ruthless corporate end-clients, I can attest to the Pozi head being an effective temper to a wildly-wielded, overpowered Makita impact tool.
It’s only really by the ‘profis’ in the Germanic zones that I’ve seen Torx fixings employed deftly; rare to see a countersunk head over 0.5mm over/under-driven, let alone mashed or stripped, and usually with a fag dangling from the bottom lip simultaneously (this whole ceaselessly, remorselessly smoking on site thing still blows my tiny lil baby brain to bits).

In the final analysis, if you fuck up anything mechanical it's on you 🙂
