At one point I had a stupidly large collection of Halfrauds screwdrivers from when they gave them away with the oil I keep buying, apparently they weren't mine though.

A screwdriver with a toughend end on the backend that goes right through to the shaft at the frontend, so you can hit/abuse it with a hammer.

Interesting.

Me? I use the appropriate chisel or screw driver as required

I detest abusing tools

So do I. But if it's designed to be used in that way, is it abuse?

They're handy for rusted and stuck fasteners. Allows a good whack to define a screwing face and also help break the bond between fastener thread and threaded thread.
