I would appreciate this too. They at one point tried to remove the close all to the right. They continue pushing new tab management features I have no interest in. It's like every good UX person over at Google is gone and we get UX ADHD instead.

Features I don't care about:

- Tab groups

- Side by side tab viewing

- Vertical tabs

if you are willing to change, Vivaldi has that.

That feature list is what I don't want

In Chrome, I can disable them via flags/settings

because it opens new ones to the right
