Firstly, the slip has grain running down the drawer (front-to-back) and the drawer bottom has grain running across the drawer (side-to-side). Creating a bead at the junction makes them blend better.
Secondly, it is difficult to create a perfect joint (even though you know I am capable of this
), and a bead hides any imperfections.
