You've never owned an old school E-maxx. Nightmare hardware.

Flat heads are still around because they surly do something the others can't, but what? The tool is used more than the fastner. Opening paint cans, scratching lotto, picking doors, car key.... It's more of a mini pry-bar with a twist. Have you ever rounded out a hex head? I turn mine into a huge flat head with the cut-off wheel.

Leverage is the flat head's advantage IMO.
