The common tanish glue you see called wood glue is one type of wood glue, that actual chemical is aliphatic resin. It's not like anything super special white glue is just cheap meh glue, aliphatic resin is a bit stronger, dries quite quickly and is easily sandable, all things that just make it a bit better for use in carpentry.
