Because switching from flat-head to Phillips screwdrivers is a big pain in
the neck, and I'd rather be able to flip the head of the thing over without
having to reach back into my toolbox (careful of that hacksaw!) and find a
different screwdriver when I'm working on a simple project.

Never mind using a screwdriver as a hammer - just don't make me use
different screwdrivers on similar projects or even wirhin the same project.
