Why would torque work different if you are screwing out a screw that's in tight past the spec?
Phillips is not an asymmetrical profile

Screws get stuck over time due to rust, galvanic corrosion, etc. Even just initial stiction trying to start to back out a clean screw that is seated and not yet corroded will be more than the steady torque used to install it. It's important to be able to apply more torque to remove them than was used to install them.
