Torx kinda requires it be made of a decent alloy, it was developed to handle situations where you really really need torque. Handling more force than anything else was the guiding principle of its design.
Hence you find it in places such as bicycle disc brake rotor mounts.
I just use Torx for everything indoors. Granted a box of a 100 50x4,5mm wood screws lasts me a few years if i don’t have any project to pursue. No need to skimp a few € on this.
Torx is only good if your screw is non rusting it rounds off too fast with almost any sign of rust.
