Funnily enough, my Pozidrive #1 is a WIHA too.  :)
  Just for the record, I haven't had any problems with MS cover screw heads
since obtaining it.
  With customer's MS harps where they've stripped the head, the silver (or
black) gives way to a yellow metal, so I'm guessing they're plated brass.  I
think you're right in that they'd benefit from being made of harder stuff.
