I've always been under the assumption that trim screws were merely flat head screws with smaller than normal heads.

Trimhead screws are something special. Generally smaller heads, Robertson style, with a cut tip, to allow drilling without requiring a pilot hole. Small sizes only, in my limited exposure to them.

Patriarch, who has only used a couple of hundred of them...

Trim screws have a smaller head. The ones we use have are square drive. You should be able to find them at any lumber yard or one of the big box stores.
