I use about 1/2 as much glue on my joints and have never, ever had one fail. The trim piece on the front of the shelf provides very little structural integrity, so over doing it with glue really shouldn't be necessary. I also have fewer issues cleaning up squeeze out, which can be big problem if you're going to be staining.
