Comparisons to other glue types:

Crazy & Super  Glues: Although they have high tensile  strength (holding power), the sheer strength (elasticity and shock absorbing  power ) is very low.

Epoxies: They take a long time to set up and cure and are very expensive. They are usually formulated for a specific  purpose and therefore  cannot be considered "all purpose" glues.

White / Yellow glues: Although they work well on some  materials, they are sensitive to heat and cold. They age and become brittle.  They usually require clamping whilst curing.

Household glues: They are the closest, but are usually formulated and labeled for specific uses and does every job.
