I just find something else to do as the battery charges. It only takes an
hour or so.

Have you ever tried driving a 3" screw using a manual screwdriver?

Everyone should have a corded drill as their primary/backup

So that when those wonderful battery powered ones die 3/4 of the way
through
a job, you don't have to wait for the battery to recharge.

And don't start the "they should have a second battery ready in the
charger
all the time" argument.
As no one ever does. LOL

If you can plug in a charger, you can plug in a drill.

And to be honest, a REAL SCREWDRIVER works great too, a bit slower, but
NEVER has to be recharged or plugged in g

Why? Corded drills are horrible screwdrivers. Any drill can drill a
hole.
What sets a good cordless drill apart is its ability to drive screws (via
a
clutch and electric brake).

If this is your one and only drill, you might want the more powerful
one.

If it is his one and only drill he should consider getting a much
cheaper
corded one first.
