Later refinements to phillips head screws made them designed to cam out (early ones did not have this as a goal) so they could be used without over-torquing in the automotive context. Pozidrive is unfortunately commonly adopted in the screws that come with cabinet hinges. I immediately throw them away and replace them with torx or robertson. Honestly, the most impressive part of phillips screws is that they figured out a way to produce them efficiently in the 30's
