    Not to mention the odds of it having a better torque rating then any standard screw is low.

    You would need a dedicated factory to build these at great expense for fancy looking screw heads.

      the alleged application was critical fasteners that people shouldn’t be working with, like frame connections

      of course, this is bullshit, because it’s been fine for the past half century, so why wouldn’t it be now?

        We’ve used tamper resistant screws as critical fasteners for that entire half a century, this is just a new and uglier version.
