People like that don't have a clue what they're talking about. "Good" and
"Traditional" aren't synonymous. Using pocket screws made for very strong
and sturdy construction. To me that is not just "good" but "great"
furniture construction. Next time, you should still use pocket screws,
just
use the pocket hole plugs and don't say anything about it.


....or just don't worry about what people say or think and make furniture the
way you know will work and be strong. Pocket holes are the quickest method
I know of this type of assembly and are quite strong.
