I'm not sure I know anyone still using regular flat spade bits. There's so many better types if bits that do a spade bits job, and they do it much better. But, there may be some sentimental need?
Either way, I will shed no tears when slotted screws, and spade bits fade from existence

Interesting video here comparing the limitation of the speedbor bit vs. the new style bosch daredevil/diablo speed demons paddle bits (which BTW are the same type of bit made in the same factory).

I've always thought that forstner bits are primarly used with drill press when trying to create different circular depth cuts. I know they can be used with regular drills but I never thought there were considered a good replacement for paddle bits or hole saws.

But yeah, a shaped bit with a screw tip is going to be faster than a traditional flat spade bit. However, they can be aggressive so if your goal is to get a cleaner hole by drilling from both sides, the non-threaded tip would be better.

But I could be wrong... clicking link now...
(Seems I was wrong... it wasn't VCG. But your point was valid in the uploaders "test".)
