[Bldg-sim] Vertical butt joint glazing - thermal bridging

A client has a project with the glazing units butt jointed at the 
vertical joints between sections.  He thinks that this may have less 
thermal bridging then for a vertical joint with typical framing 
details.  Does any one have any experience with this type of 
joint?  The glazing units are double pane sealed units with warm edge 
spacers.
