Windows 10 Sets tabbed window feature is discontinued from Microsoft

Ars' take is essentially that that legacy (win32) issues have made the transition impracticable: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/04/microsoft-quietly-gi...

A pity, not so much (to me) regarding the tabs per se, but what it demonstrates about the general sclerosis in desktop OSs. It's hardly the first time Microsoft has had to bail on innovation (WinFS comes to mind). In use Windows feels like a patchwork of UI bits from different eras, and this is clearly not going to change in the foreseeable future.
