So.....who knows for sure? Is there such a thing ?? Are they different ??

Nope. no point missed. You more or less said what I meant; If it doesn't feel like a good snug fit then don't use it. I had a fresh new #2 Phillips bit that was a perfect fit for the metric screws on my carb. Until reading this thread I never heard of a Phillips head on a metric screw being different from a Philips head on an english screw. Personally I'm somewhat skeptical, but I don't claim to know everything, so maybe they are slightly different.
