Default Use spacers on shower wall tile?

I got tiles, premix thinset, "blue board" water resistant sheet rock
in preparation to replace a section of tiles in my shower stall. The
guy in that dept where I got the stuff at Home Depot insisted I don't
need spacers for the tile, that shower stall wall tiles are supposed
to be butted up against each other.

All the "how to" videos I see on YouTube show the use of spacers for
setting shower stall wall tiles. You think this guy just didn't know
what he was talking about?


Some ceramic tile has two "tits" on each side which act as spacers,
Natural materials don't have this feature.
I certainly recommend using spacers with "titless" material.
