Old screwdriver trick vs. my new drill driver for panel mounting

Back in 2012 I used to hand-thread every screw into the panel box in Chattanooga, took me like 20 minutes per job and my wrist was toast by Friday. Then I bought a right-angle drill attachment for $40 and now I zip through 16 screws in under 3 minutes, but I still keep a flathead in my pocket for the stubborn ones that strip out. Anyone else ditch the manual way but still carry a backup tool out of habit?

Man, I feel you on keeping the flathead around. That muscle memory of having a backup is hard to shake, and honestly it saves my butt more often than I'd like to admit.
