      pozidriv is pretty cool, but annoying to use since people confuse it with phillips all the time so you end up with a lot of stripped screws.

      torx is the way to go. their sizing is odd, but it transfers torque well and is wear-resistant.

      Double hex and triple square just have to be just as bad as all the Phillips variants. I can’t see that being a reliable shape for a screw

        My GTI had triple-square bolts for the seats. The bolts were maybe 1/2" diameter, and I was able to comfortably get a lot of torque on them. Weird design though, and can’t imagine it holding up on smaller, softer screws
