Default Those @#%&* servo arm screws!

Feel like I've been scr...........d for 2 hours, and didn't enjoy it. Why don't they use socket head screws to hold on the arms? Does anyone even use those crappy phillips head screws to hold their servos in? Had flap and aileron servos (a Futaba and a Hitec) imbedded in a new wing. Had the arm installed incorrectly and had to remove for proper centering. Try and take out those screw with a Phillips head screw driver at an angle-pure torture! Anyone got a better idea? Not sure if there is a socket head screw that would fit properly. We pay enough for this stuff, why can't these manufacturers even provide the socket head screws for installing the servos? I'd gladly pay the extra .04 cents!
