I think both the issues you've raised are quite confusing and unexpected.

The tabs macro issue with the currentTiddler is probably a mistake: I think
it would have been better for the tabs macro to take a "variable" parameter
that defaults to "currentTiddler". Sadly, it's too late to change now. We
could add the "variable" parameter, but it would have to default to
"currentTab" for backwards compatibility.

Actually, there is a potential way to resolve it: we could switch to a new
convention and reimplement the tabs macro as "tg-macro" (g === "global
macro", to distinguish from "tm-*" which is used for messages). The new
version could have a different default for the "variable" parameter. But I
think ultimately that makes for even more confusion.

Best wishes
