Remember, guys, "left" wing in the US is further right than far right in Europe.

Upvote for typo.
small screws in general are just easy to strip
Hexes are very sturdy. I ride mountain bikes and for some reason brake rotors are secured with Torx while all other screws are hexes. Torx on rotors are usually tightened to 4-6Nm and they are single use 99% of the time. At the same time there are plenty of hexes of the same size which are tightened to 8-10Nm and there are zero issues.
Torx are fucking useless. And don't get me started on tiny Torxes in laptops...
Many countries have laws and regulations which create customer protections, so there's no need to rely on 3rd party solutions.
The real question is why do people in the US use credit cards instead of debit cards like everyone else?
NFC payments are more secure than card payments.
So you can change the colour of your phone.
Torx are easier to strip, especially the smaller sizes. They're pretty much single use screws.
I was doing some bike maintenance today and wanted to disassemble my rear hub. It turned out that I needed a 12mm Allen bit for that, which I don't have. So I 3D printed one! And it worked! Torques safely to 5Nm and I only needed 4Nm for the job. Haven't tested higher torques.
As served in Trattoria La Molinara in Verona, Italy. Incredible quality and taste!

Fasteners are standard from rotor manufacturers. I have no clue what they're made out of. But in 30 years of cycling I've never had a single Torx which would last more than one cycle of screw in screw out.
