Torx is a lot less likely to strip out the tool or the fastener than Allen, especially at smaller sizes. Torx comes in a smaller variety of sizes than Allen does, so it’s more difficult to choose a slightly wrong size. Especially with Allen being offered in both metric and moon landing fractionals, there’s like, M0.8, and 14/93", one of which fits slightly loosely in the other and will sorta work, until you turn real hard on a stubborn bolt and round out the screw and/or driver.
In other words, it is my experience that you’ll have a large pile of allens that you can’t realistically tell apart, and a set of like 8 Torx tips from which you only use like three.
