What makes a servo motor a servo motor?

Motors that are marketed as servos also usually have lower inertia
than typical motors and magnet materials that are more resistant to
demagnetization under high peak currents. Both important features for
high acceleration, but often overkill in modest applications.
Very high currents from overloads can kill those magnets. I've had to replace motors for
that reason.
