i am *baffled*, baffled I tell you, by the popularity of flathead here
-F

@Felthry idk we just like them

they're simple and in low-torque applications they work fine

we see a lot of machinists on YouTube making their own flathead screws - I assume it's possible to make other screw drivers in a hobby shop but we've never seen it

@starkatt @Felthry ...we feel really attacked about this and it's pretty uncomfortable

@packbat @starkatt i guess people have strong opinions about screwdrivers... you okay?
-F

@Felthry this didn't help but we already weren't okay

we've been having a really bad week and feeling pretty helpless

- 🎒

@Felthry we don't even have strong opinions about screwdrivers - our life doesn't involve very many of them these days

but being yelled at and about for making a whimsical choice on a meaningless poll is upsetting and we hate it
