If I recall the history correctly, and I read about it many years ago, Ford used square drive fasteners for a while in the early days of the Model T, but couldn't come to a good long term agreement with the inventor and turned to using phillips fasteners. If they had come to terms, would they be more common today?
There's a documentary about the screws on cable, I watched part of it. Yeah, that seems to be the story. I guess sometimes not the best product wins, the VHS vs beta comes to mind.
