And a cover page, and a TOC page,and a Front Matter page, and a horizontal
layout page if you are inclined
Can't you have a mater page for each of the side tabs, then have FM select
the MP automatically based on a paragraph style you can apply to the
section?
I haven't been following this thread much, so if what I'm saying doesn't
make sense, I'm getting used to it.

Then I'm missing something in the discussion: I'm not creating additional
master page sets. By default, a FM file has a "Left" and a "Right" master
page... which I am using. I'm simply copying the relevant background object
group from the side tab master FM file and pasting it onto the "Right"
master page for that chapter FM file. I'm not changing anything else.
The side tab master file is where I set sizing and positioning for all of
the tab groups relevant to one another, and then simply utilize as needed
throughout the "real" chapter files... For the chapter 1 FM file, the tab 1
group of objects for the side tab get copied, for the chapter 2 FM file,
the tab 2 group, etc. Since copy and paste work on exact position, it's a
very simple process.
I'm hard pressed to understand how not putting the tab objects on the
master pages would make this process easier.

No, but it makes your life easier. Even if you have 10 or more different
master pages, wouldn't it be easier to have on MP and just define which
page to use?
The only time I could picture multiple MP sets is one for each client or
document type (Release note vs instructions_

"That seems wrong to me. Master pages should not vary from chapter to
chapter."
Since when? As long as the page dimensions and main text flow frames are
identical, master page ancillary content can most certainly vary by
chapter. You are not limited to using a single master page set for an
entire book.

That seems wrong to me. Master pages should not vary from chapter to
chapter.
