Tom has a point in that most linear ("V") brake anchors do
not have cylindrical heads and actually do look more like an
'internal wrenching bolt':

p.s.
A metric DIN #912 cap screw is usually under a dollar. Not
so with Actual Bicycle Parts!

Here is the same shape used as a nut. This makes the design of the lengths very complicated though.

It took several years for them to apply this and as I said, it has a strict engineering use. It spreads the pressure on the washer under it that is used to lock the cables.

I was in the Ace Hardware looking for some metric bolts and came across the entire size and length variations in a series of bins.
