> Slot screws date back to the ~15th century, Phillips to the 1930s, and Torx to the 60s. They all brought improvements.
But Torx does not call itself "Phillips": you know the difference and plan accordingly.
Calling something "sudo" and then not working like sudo is the problem.
Sudo used to be in OpenBSD, but they found it too troublesome (at least as a default) so they created something else / 'better' for their needs: they didn't call it "sudo", they called it "doas", because it did not work the same way as sudo.
You may still be using flint-knapped knives, but the world as a whole moved on to bronze, then iron, and, more recently, steel. Hammers evolved as well, with more ergonomic grips being invented to reduce repetitive strain injuries, as well as various heads which are better suited to different tasks (like the claw hammer or ball-peen hammer).
I don't know the history of knives and hammers, but screwdrivers _have_ evolved, in backwards incompatible ways.
