Newer bikes use the Torx-type, at least the higher-end bike I just got recently uses them exclusively. While I was researching why, I learned that there's a general shift toward this type as there's less chances of stripping but it's not always the case with smaller sizes where hex is still popular. Perhaps I'm just resurrecting an old debate. Ikea just needs to package extra Torx wrenches in their flatpacks.
Some people buy extra hex screws (allen head) to not have to carry extra tools around. It's just a matter of preference today but the industry is headed toward Torx. Newer cars also feature Torx as bolt heads don't have to stand as proud (or deep) as hex.

I would have preferred if there was a 'variety pack' with a size range.
Untrue. Many deck and large screws use torx, specifically T25. They are far less likely to strip.

I guess these impact versions are designed to last.
Correct, most stuff on bikes is hex, not torx

Doesn't it say this is XPS ?

Some bikes that have disc brakes usually use torx to remove discs
