I had a look at one of Rosas videos on crack repairs and have seen him before he is great. Man you would need small hands to work internally on acoustic guitars like that fixing braces etc. I would like to fix it more for cosmetic reasons than anything else. I am pretty sure the crack is stable, probably from a small impact rather than a drying out split. I will probably sell the guitar in the future and people generally don't like to see cracks of any kind. So repairing it should bond and seal it and make it look better.
That glue I see a lot of the guys using on guitars. Looks like a furniture glue I used to have back home. Was like a cross between PVA wood glue and epoxy. Very strong. You are 100% right about super glue. No matter how careful you are it runs everywhere and as soon as it runs it all over. If a Luthier was doing a job like that how do they color match?
Do you know what they call that glue? Must be water based as he is using water to thin it down
