adjustable shelf feature gets a one-time use over the life of the
piece.


Amen, brother! In my house, it usually goes like this:

Me: "Dear, I'm building a new cabinet for the basement."

SWMBO: "Will it have adjustable shelves?"

Me: (after being through a different version of this conversation)
"Yes, dear. Of course, dear."

SWMBO: "Great!"

I build the cabinet with adjustable shelves, placing the shelves
exactly where I would have placed non-adjustable shelves.

The shelves are never "adjusted" again.
