Oh man, that "actually JIS heads, not Phillips" thing is so real. I had the exact same problem with an old Pentax I was trying to fix. I mean, I was so frustrated thinking I was just being clumsy. Getting the right drivers was a total game changer, it just fits perfectly. I found a cheap set online and it made all the difference for my old Japanese bikes too.

Reminds me of my friend who finally looked up at the night sky during a power outage last summer. He'd lived in that house for ten years and never really saw the stars because of the streetlights. He was totally blown away by the Milky Way just sitting there the whole time. Said it felt like a secret he'd been missing. Makes you want to just turn everything off and stare at the walls sometimes, see what's actually there.

Keep a few printed copies ready.

Totally get that. Felt the same way about my community garden plot fee. That extra ten bucks bought everyone new hoses last month. Makes the small penalty feel useful.

Honestly, the fix is just using a higher sample rate.
