Is this a good thing, or a bad thing?

??I have used titebond for years for all my wood gluing needs, including hanging hammers. I don't even?own a glue pot. I just could never see the need for all that mess. ?

I saw the "sandable" and "fills small gaps"
description on the bottle,  tried some on some test
bushings, and truly liked the way it handled ! 
Held the felt fast, but still softened under water,
dried harder than PVC or regular PVBA ( meaning less
sweling in humidity, I suspect ).
     Unless someone gives me a  good reason not to, I
intend to use this stuff on keybushungs ( and
soundboard shims ) henceforth.
