this is very true. I had to glue a couple very good pins which looked like they were made at the factory (one was made prior to polishing/post fitting, another one had a cap out of the matching wood). Wood was still moving 40-70 years later.

Pins are certainly easier to execute as you don't need lathe to cut the groove, but for big cracks bands are better choice, IMHO
