Best Answer

Because welds, if done correctly, can be stronger than the metal itself, and rust is caused by oxidation, a chemical reaction between oxygen and the metal, therefore the glue may not bond well. So, a weld would be the way to go due to its overall ability to hold the metal together for long periods of time with amazing strength.
