I hate that too, I feel like I have that issue with Philips as well. In fact, I was struggling with it just today

The flipside to that is when you've got a JIS driver and when you're done it doesn't want to let go of the screw. Very satisfying, possibly sexual.

I guess it just depends on your tools, I prefer torx over hex because it feels much more solid and less likely to strip out if it's a cheap screw, I worked on a product that had the outside screws there were supposed to look nice use these hex heads made of butter haha but the rest of the appliance used all torx of the same size head

Maybe, I only work with high tensile stuff and occasionally stainless, so I've never had issues with hex heads (that weren't caused by misuse)

That's more of a tapping motion for me, but everyone has different needs and who am I to judge?
