I feel like a + shaped screw head would be as standard as a pyramid if multiple civilizations had developed screws independently. It wouldn't be the last kind, but it would be there somewhere. Maybe even a long, long time ago.

I think a single slotted screw head would be more universal and easy. You just cut one line into the top of the screw head and your ready to go. A Philips head would need to be cut twice and once you did, you've weakened the head one degree more by removing more material

You clearly haven't had to screw a flathead screw.

Anyone that's dicked around with those little bastards starts hating life after about thirty seconds. A fastener I can screw in a without having to be perfectly in line with the shaft? Yes please! I don't care if it's a shitty Phillips screw, sign me up. I'd even take those goofy square Canadian screws. Hell, anything is better than flathead.

I challenge you to find a screw worse to use than a flathead screw.
