    Temper proof torx makes me lol, because almost every bit set I own includes them.

    If you break it off you will most likely leave some behind, which will significantly reduce the mating area because you cannot insert the bit fully and may lead to stripping the screw.

      Fair. It all depends on where it breaks off and how tight the screw is. In electronics the screws arent in very tight, and breaking it off often breaks it off all the way down to the base.
      Whatever happens, tamper proof is a huge fail and a good joke
