At least flat head screws aren't as common as they were in the 1920s, but Phillips somehow became the de facto standard and it's just completely terrible. Everyone has a Phillips screwdriver, but that's only because Phillips screws are used in almost everything. If manufacturers just phased them out over time I believe people would adapt just like they adapted to Phillips.
But whishing for Phillips to go away seems just as hopeless as whishing that daylight savings time would go away... Both simple things to make happen, but the fact that they won't is proof of just how messed up and f#cked this world truly is.
