Wrong, wrong and wrong. It's clear that you are not Understanding Wood.

Based on the above I do not think further discussion is likely to result in mutual understanding.

Wow! Someone got up on the wrong side of the bed. Wife cut you off? Not surprising.

No, it's just that you are so far from comprehending what I'm speaking about that I don't hold out much hope for your enlightenment.

So it wasn't just a coffee thing. You really are an asshole. No wonder she booted you.

While the typical stile and top-bottom rail are generally narrow enough that any seasonal movement can generally be ignored (regardless of the top/bottom rail being coped into the stile, or vice versa), with wide center rails, it can be beneficial to glue only the center of the rail tenons.
