I presented one specific scenario/use case that I find completely ridiculous, intimating it was an ADHD symptom that one would need a better medical therapy to get past. That was exaggeration. I realize that doesn't necessarily come across via text comments with strangers.

I hadn't heard of "tab sleeping" either, so knowing that does blow that issue away. So I concede that point.

And I don't use just one store. You can leave things in however many carts you have accounts for. Personally I rarely take longer than one browsing session to purchase something, but I understand that's not necessarily everybody.

The longest (and most complicated, speaking of tab usage) browser process I've ever done was when I built my last computer. I used 3 different stores just for that, and took a couple days to finalize the final choices of parts, but even then I didn't keep them all open.

And if tab sleeping really does fix the resource issue, then I'm not even arguing this process is better or worse anymore, aside from just opening up articles without ever actually reading them.

I can probably use my fingers to count how many times I've needed multiple windows in my life (and I'm old now in Internet years), and double digit quantities of tabs is probably barely a bigger number.

Personally, organizing and keeping track of that many things open would drive me nuts.
