The one advantage that I can see with a false tongue, over biscuits,
is a larger surface area for the glue.
Biscuits leave more of the edge timber available for glue. The idea is they
hold the boards 'level' while the glue dries.

That's good, the missus bought me a cheap one many xmas's ago. Maybe
time to dust off the box.
