Yes - it is more manufacturable and technological! And the time - people wants everything now! But we are still waiting to see 250 years old MDF cabinet!
Here is a Bulgarian house from 19 century

There are 2 dovetail plugins from this guy. The second one gives you more control but it is in french only.

Yes, I think someone translated it, though. I have an English version of it. It puts the dovetails on the blue axis starting at the origin and outside a component even if it is open for editing.
My drawing process doesn't require that I know things like the width and height of the drawers before I draw them because I draw the parts in place and draw them to fit the opening. I edit the components after they are all in place to add the joinery and other details. Drawers are never at the global origin in my models because there's always some other structure, a case or table frame which has its lower, front, left corner at the origin. That dovetail plugin isn't really a time saver for me because I would have to either move the dovetail layout it draws or copy/cut and paste it into place to modify the drawers.
That's just my method of work, though. Everyone has a different way and that's what makes SketchUp so cool. You can arrive at the same point down different paths.
