No more ply and joints

When I used NMP I followed instructions by putting a bead of their tubed adhesive in every 2mm joint between boards. Once it had set I then ran a stanley blade across to remove any excess. The adhesive is like an expanding foam, although not on that scale and is actually very strong.
Sounds like pu glue

i've always glued and butted them together. I'm pretty sure there shouldn't be a joint between them.
 
I just found a Kascade wet room shower base "instruction" sheet which shows no more ply fitted to walls dot and dabbed and again there is no scrim shown.
The only place that I have seen where they specify scrimming the joints is when it is used to overboard a cracked concrete floor.
That said, I think that when I used to use it I always scrimmed the joints just like I would with any other board; it didn't take that long or cost much for a bit of extra peace of mind!
