      until someone tries to use a phillips bit on a pozidriv screw.

      pozidriv is better, but at that point, just use torx.

        I think both torx and pozidriv have their place. Torx for any screw that needs a lot of torque, is in a hard to reach place or for really small screws.

        When I have lot of screws in a simple application, like driving them directly into wood, I prefer pozidriv though. Due to the conical profile, the bit just automatically slides in correctly. Also, torx just has way too many different sizes.

          fully agree, both have flaws and advantages. but both are better than phillips.
