The video has some strange ways of testing and, even if the bolt has been sacrificed for the explanation, it hurts me to see it clamped by its threads in a vice.

How else would you find out how it works besides cutting it open? Worrying about the threads is like worrying the medical examiner doing the autopsy will pull the stiffs hair.

I can't say there might not be a good place for them, but I don't have one.

The cost analysis shows not all applications warrant the high cost. Also different applications of the same size bolt often call out different torques so I doubt you'll find these in a hardware store.
