Flathead gang for life phillips can kick sand
You found one that is objectively worse than Phillips. (Because it's just the worst, period.)
I think Phillips would looks weird on an outlet cover plate, and the aesthetics of a flathead look the best. But for sure everywhere else it's the worst screw head type
I think Phillips would look fine, especially if it's painted like those screws always are. And there are still other solutions, for example square drive (the bits are rare, but would be easy enough to just sell next to the plates if it became popular)
