Philips are too easy to strip and Slotted screws are rage inducing trying to keep the driver aligned. :(

Not pictured here is also 'JIS' or Japanese Industry Standard screws.
They are very similar to Philips, but they're slightly deeper with sharper corners. They have less tendency to 'cam-out' and strip the screw head.
Supposedly the camming out thing is actually intentional design in Philips screws, to prevent screw guns from over torquing screws in early automotive/aircraft assembly lines; but there's not actually evidence to support that according to Wikipedia.
That will solve part of the problem, preventing downloads before an item has even released; but there's still lots of potential to grab unwanted torrents and leave the arrs asking for intervention when they can't import it.
Ideally the indexers would be filtering out this junk before users can even grab them, but failing that I think we've got a decent solution. Check out the edited OP
No, I don't. Haven't been on Reddit for 2.5 years though, so why would I.
Stop torturing yourself OP. Move on.
Check out the edited OP.
I'm taking a look at this. It looks like it's the malware blocker portion that I'm interested in, but if I enable it and 'delete known malware', it just complains every minute that there are no blocklists enabled. (though the documents say it's supposed to fetch one from a pages.dev url that has almost no content)
Do you have a specific malware blocklist configured? Enabling the specific service blocklists demands a url for one.
I can host/build a list over time for these to use if that's what I've gotta do; just wondering if there's a public collaboration on one already on the go.

No.
Here's the LegalEagle explaining why.
TLDW; punishment can include the death penalty. It's also a system designed to punish disobedience immediately and only much much later provide an opportunity to prove the orders you disobeyed were unlawful and thus the punishment you already suffered was wrong. That's a very very high bar to pass as well.
That's what I'd already done as per the OP, but it leaves Sonarr/Radarr wanting manual intervention for the 'complete' download that doesn't have any files to import.
I just did some digging and found I do have some good quality content from them, but they were all grabbed via NZBGeek.
Every torrent I've gotten with that label has been garbage/malware.
This comment prompted me to look a little deeper at this. I looked at the history for each show where I've had failed downloads from those groups.
For SuccessfulCrab; any time a release has come from a torrent tracker (I only have free public torrent trackers) it's been garbage. I have however had a number of perfectly fine downloads with that group label, whenever retrieved from NZBgeek. I've narrowed that filter to block the string 'SuccessfulCrab' on all torrent trackers, but allow NBZs. Perhaps there's an impersonator trying to smear them or something, idk.
ELiTE on the other hand, I've only got history of grabbing their torrents and every one of them was trash. That's going to stay blocked everywhere.
The block potentially dangerous setting is interesting, but what exactly is it looking for? The torrent client is already set to not download file types I don't want, so will it recognize and remove torrents that are empty? (everything's marked 'do not download') I'm having a hard time finding documentation for that.
Awesome. Thanks you two, I appreciate the help. :)
Philips/Square/Slotted (all three combined) is really common in North American electrical. Switches, outlets, breakers; all commonly use them for terminal screws.
Great for lower torque applications; you certainly wouldn't use them for like a deck/structural screw.
