    Pocket Holes...How many is too many?

    Was watching an episode of "The American Woodshop this evening and they were building a kitchen cabinet. I believe if I heard it right the dimensions were 12" deep 24" wide and 48 tall (3/4 birch ply). My question comes in when he started to explain assembly of the carcass with pocket holes. Top and bottoms were connected with 6 holes on each side and 10 across the back, then 16 on each side to connect the back for a total of 76 pocket holes on one cabinet. Am I crazy or is this overkill? I realize Kreg is a sponsor and I can respect that but I cant see needing any more than 30-35 at the most..

    oh and he used another 32 to attach the face frame...
