Time will tell i guess!

I prefer hex head bolts, and keep a nut driver in my box for them. It doesn't slip off like a slotted and has served me well for many years.

Time will tell, indeed. And in any case I've found plenty of nylon SHCSs online so I may order up a set and convert to those!

Edit: I could have saved myself a lot of time and effort by picking these up at the LHS!
