Pardon my ignorance. What is a PVA glue?

  PolyVinylAcetate. Essentially white and yellow carpenter/woodworking glues.

Not quite.  There's also aliphatic resin emulsion, that is the yellow glue

 This detail might be where the confusion lies then. Perhaps the aliphatics stick better to a cured line?
 Some woodworking sites mention TB as a PVA which does not seem to be the case.

 I incorrectly assumed yellow glue was just the same as white glue with an additive.
