My brain can't handle more than a dozen open tabs. If I need more than 8 or so, I'll sling some in another browser instance. I honestly don't know if this is because I'm dumb or smart, but at my last jobs the smarter people always had about 2 dozen tabs open. LOL, no one ever rebooted.

I work with someone who never closes a tab. They'll just keep plowing ahead until they literally have to reboot their computer for lack of resources. Physical clutter doesn't bother me much, but I have to look away when they share their screen.

Firefox tabs survive reboots and waste about as much resources as a bookmark. Those people should really migrate.

You can set Firefox to purge everything when you close it, not sure why its not set as default

Closing all tabs is default behavior.
