To be honest, I don't know why this is being debated, as I doubt an allen key has ever broken off inside a nut. The hardened steel of the allen key would strip the softer metal of the nut, the nut thread would strip off and come away or the trussrod itself would fracture before the key itself broke off in the hole!
