>I couldn't resist continuing the construction metaphor. A hammer is best for nails and a screwdriver for screws, but sometimes both together are best for something that is neither nail or screw such as an electrician removing knockouts from a box or panel. As an ex-carpenter, I still sometimes see applications for older, even ancient, tools for things that can be done with newer tools, but not as well.
