I wish the iPad went back to being more iOS-like: something like multiple Safari windows, each with their own collection of tabs, is something I wish I could disable (both for myself, and for some of the seniors I'm tech support for). I have iDevices because I want simplicity and single-task-ness; I have Macs for multi-tasking. If Apple needs to satisfy both single- and multi-tasking iDevices users, there should be some kind of mode toggle.

You can disable or not use these features. Like gyomu said below, iPadOS Windows Apps is optional and opt-in. The default is full screen: https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/work-with-multiple-windows-at-once-ipad08c9970c/ipados https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/work-with-multiple-wind... Select "Full Screen Apps". And you do not have to use Tab Groups. iPad User Guide link: https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/organize-your-tabs-with-tab-groups-ipadf5a4dd79/ipados https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/organize-your-tabs-with... Unsarcastically speaking, I've been using these OSes for 2 decades plus but I still read through each OS's respective User Guides and still learn a ton every release. iPad User Guide: https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/welcome/ipados https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/welcome/ipados iPhone User Guide: https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/welcome/ios https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/welcome/ios Mac User Guide: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/welcome/mac https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/welcome/mac

Isn’t your mode toggle just turning StageManager in or off?
