I hate how Torx screws have been mostly relegated to "tamper-proof" use (also, they're not, the drivers with the required hole in the middle are just as easy to find as those without).
It's so much better designed than hex sockets, especially for small sizes where it's easy to suddenly reform a hex driver or screw head or both into a poorly drawn circle.
Torx is the one true screw head.
