Default fixing squeaky floor with plain wood screw?

On 16 Jul 2015, wrote in alt.home.repair:

Ring nails were used in the days before power screw drivers - and
they don't hold any better now than they did then. It is because
of ring nails that people now have squeaky floors to fix with
screws.


How is that? Is there some problem with ring nails compared to regular
smooth nails?
