It's epoxy, we are saving a good amount of weight, by not using as many.

Bolts can losen during a match and need to be tightened. That makes the frame corners weaker. Epoxy can't losen, so it will make the frame strong all the time. Welding will do the same thing, but welding can make the frame warp. This is just as light weight as welding, but with no warping.
