All I can say is that we are fortunate that the overlap between "VGA ports everywhere" and "battery operated impact drivers" is almost zero on the timeline. Imagine trying to unscrew a VGA plug by hand that was tightened down to ugga-dugga-foot-pounds of torque. Of course that assumes that didn't shear the screws first.
