Remember this!
Spliceable and joinable both refer to the ability of materials to be joined together. However, the difference between the two is the method of connection and the integrity of the materials. Spliceable materials can be cut and rejoined without losing their integrity, while joinable materials can be combined without losing their structural integrity. Spliceable often requires more precision and skill than joinable methods and is typically used for materials like ropes, wires, or fibers.
