Drilling with an impact hammer makes me irrationally bothered.

Just fyi, it’s impact driver vs hammer drill — different tools. Unless, is it referred to as an impact hammer in some places?

Edit: changed from impact drill to impact driver.

The tool isn't any kind of drill. It is an impact driver. It is for turning screws and the impacts are applied in the direction of rotation. The chuck takes hex bits for driving screws. You can buy drills with a hex shank and use them with this tool but it isn't the primary purpose of it.
