Default why use torx bolts?

If there is sufficient space to fit a standard bolt head and get a socket it,
what is the reason for using a torx bolt?
In the early days perhaps it was so only manufactures could work on car, I don't know but with so many tools available, what's the point?

I'm tempted to replace the two torx bolts, that hold the offside drive shaft support with standard headed bolts. Any reason not to?
