I gave up spending the time and effort to even try to make them flush
when gluing and setting up. Now I simply make install them a bit proud
on purpose and then trim them flush with a pattern bit in the router.

I have a jig for running them vertically. I can do that in less time
than it would take to try to glue them flush.... plus, I never get it
perfect and end up going to the router, anyway, so why not cut to the
chase.
