i built RTMs for a summer when i was in high school and that was what we used to get a sheet started on a wall. There is always that risk of them popping a bit, but much, much easier to get a sheet started and not having to carry around the screw gun. It didn't take too much practice to get to the point where you only needed to push the nail in a bit to set it and then one swift shot with the hammer - it was buried with a perfect little dimple in the drywall.

Now my disclaimer - i only did this for a summer so my knowledge is very limited. However, i do know that the people i worked for were extremely quality conscious so if they expected major problems, i'm sure they would be going the 100% screw route.
