This hardness concern comes up in every precision screwdriver thread.
But what many don't realize is that some of these screwdrivers are soft on purpose so they don't damage the screws.
I would much rather have to buy a new precision screwdriver than have to track down a replacement for some obscure screw, especially with how right to repair is almost non-existent these days and companies won't provide replacement parts.
Get the S2 version. Cheap steel bits break/strip very easily. S2 is much more durable ...

But then again, don't grunk on those tiny screws and you won't strip/round them...🤷

Some of those screws are just too small and fragile, even without any 'grunking'.
If it's something like an iPhone or Nintendo console where you can easily buy replacements, I wouldn't be too worried.
But on stuff where it's almost easier to just buy a replacement than source the screw, I definitely take my time.
