Are these the "slots" you are talking about?

Always wondered what purpose they serve. Like @rustjunkie said, they're not deep enough to apply any real torque.
When you are removing pedals, leave the rear wheel and chain on because the coaster brake prevents the crank from turning while you are applying pressure to the pedal wrench---- this goes for both the right and left pedal and eliminates any guessing about which way to turn the pedals to loosen them.

They are there to help install... so yer not screwing with a wrench the whole time until you need to put that final torque on em.. less chance of the wrench hitting paint ect... oil em up, get them started and then use the screwdriver to screw them in.. finish tightening with wrench.. there is a purpose for them ..

Less chance of messing threads up that way too... if it’s not going in right, the slot is shallow enough that yer screwdriver will pop out... kinda a safety thing of sorts..

It's off . I just put a 15mm (which is a little longer than my 9/16) with a short cheater bar on it and heaved.. It let out a snap loud enough that I thought I had broken the wrench. Must have been Jack the Bear that installed it. On to paint.
