@BillDL is right that the screwdriver method is using the shaft of a screwdriver to compress the material, but I've always thought that would give less control so never done it that way.
Incidentally, I have a 2001 MIM Classic 60s Tele that has nicely rounded edges. I suspect the previous owner had played it a lot.
If you want a consistent rollover always scrape in one direction. If you want more of a scalloped rollover, scrape back and forth.
Start with the blade nearly flat against the board, then do small scrapes, rotating slightly after each pass so the blade ends up nearly flat with the edge of the fretboard.
On old vid I did to show that

I tried the screwdriver method a few years ago on a rosewood board P-bass and ended up making a mess because the screwdriver cracked the finish which unbeknownst to me had been sprayed up onto the sides of the fingerboard. I would use a razor blade next time.
I change the angle of the blade to achieve a radius rather than a flat (I guess Sticky does too)

Either I’ve never played a guitar with them, or I haven’t noticed.
For me it’s a gamechanger and non-negotiable
