What fascinates me (still) is that a PC (laptop, whatever) works by

make their functionality easier to handle (just look at Dreamweaver or any other web design program of that ilk!) So, why do some folk think that's OK,
but if you are using a browser it's awful?

Strawman.

Being able to open multiple browser windows is great!

Having Joe Random Site Author decide when that should happen is not.
