The joiner strips sometimes make easier joints than tabs. If you're joining two cylinders or conics with tabs you must rely on printed lines or eye to line them up straight. If you glue a joiner strip inside one piece it guides the other part into position and the edges of the two parts butt up against each other, automatically aligning the joint (provided your cuts are straight).
