Yes: for each buffer, add a new tab with a new [No Name] buffer in it. So we
have one more buffer. The result is actually: for each buffer, add a new [No
Name] buffer. You should have checked ":help :tabnew", it mentions that with
no argument, it creates a new tab with an empty window.
You may have several windows to a single buffer, in the same tab or in
different tabs, but creating a new "empty" window actually also creates a new
[No Name] buffer to contain whatever edits you'll make in that "empty" window.
Best regards,

-- Gifts for Men --
Men are amused by almost any idiot thing -- that is why professional
ice hockey is so popular -- so buying gifts for them is easy. But you
should never buy them clothes. Men believe they already have all the
clothes they will ever need, and new ones make them nervous. For
example, your average man has 84 ties, but he wears, at most, only
three of them. He has learned, through humiliating trial and error,
that if he wears any of the other 81 ties, his wife will probably laugh
at him ("You're not going to wear THAT tie with that suit, are you?").
So he has narrowed it down to three safe ties, and has gone several
years without being laughed at. If you give him a new tie, he will
pretend to like it, but deep inside he will hate you.
If you want to give a man something practical, consider tires. More
than once, I would have gladly traded all the gifts I got for a new set
of tires.
