Ackshually, the pentalobe screwdrivers, commonly available now, are superior to Phillips as they are more resistant to cam-outs and tamper proof.

Who said I was comparing it to Phillips? Sure, Apple used to use Phillips for their case-back screws on their laptops, but Torx (superior to Pentalobe) already existed, and may have already been used by Apple elsewhere (I don't readily recall).

Tamper-proof? Hardly.
