Honest question: Can't you just open a new browser window then?

  Not really. It doesn't function the same. Doing Command + Tab on a Mac shows them as the same application so you can't switch that way, you still have to use Command + ~ which is unlike all other apps in function as well as key combo. Also features like expose show the same framing around each website so if you have enough things open the only visual queue is a very tiny preview of the website which, depending on what you need to use, isn't always clear (at least not for me on my 13" MacBook). It's a workaround that I do use but it's not a substitute I'm afraid. Windows handles this a little better, IMO, but it's still not great and the occasional crash of a web browser tab still sometimes takes the whole thing down.

    So basically because MacOS usabillity is not good on multi window desktop apps and the browser doesn't sandbox correctly tabs.

      I think you missed the part where I said Windows was better but still not great along with the issue of one tab crashing taking them all down (which still happens despite the separate process per tab).
