But wouldn't that require multiple plug cutters to cover the different
diameters?


The Lee Valley counter sinks are not designed for plugs,
you would need these for plugs:

Often times, the hole doesn't really need a plug, just a flush fit
for the screw head.




Those are for wood screws, not drywall screws.
Most of us use dry wall screws today.
For those a straight bit is required, not a tapered.

I have a set of both, tapered and straight.

I rarely use wood screws anymore, I do when it is necessary, or more
accurate.

Take a look at the snappy brand.
