While true, I've never seen it on a piece of tech.

If this is meant to be a general around-the-house screwdriver set, then the price point is way off. If this is meant to be more of a tech-focused set, missing Torx seems really dumb.



For most tech related tasks they could get rid of the flat-head bits and replace those with the Torxs. If they really wanted to keep the Robertson bits.


I don't agree because I've seen plenty of consumer-grade tech that uses flat-head screws. It's becoming less common but as one example I have a couple of external USB-nVME enclosures that came with flat-head screws to open the external casing. Inside it's Philips.
