There is an article that we did on this in our Tech Talk book also
published in Austin Healey Magazine Feb 1996 of which the info came
directly from the grandson of Mr Phillips, the American Screw Comapny
and the Phillips Screw Company.
The phillips screw head was designed to slip at a specific torque.
The pozi screw head was designed not to slip.
