Just too many competitive choices these days...

You can indeed get away with that if you use drawer slides that work on
the "opening less 1"" principle, but try it with under mount slides like
Hettichs, where the drawer has to be built specifically to the slides
specs and with close tolerances, and you would be doing nothing but
creating installation problems that would take far more time to resolve
than making the drawers themselves.
