    KDE’s Konqueror had this for … decades, I believe.

    It means that no matter what size display you’ve got, if you want to do side-by-side comparison on ONE site you’re visiting, then you split the window for THAT tab.

    You don’t need 2 windows, with all their menu-bars, widgets, borders, status-bars, etc, duplicated.

    Much cleaner.

    On small displays, it’s wonderful, for comparing information between 2 pages/sites.

    On mobile, it’s impossible to have 2 windows of Firefox open simultaneously.

    & 1 of the above commenters pointed out that they’re only doing it where it doesn’t really matter to most, on the desktop, but NOT doing it where it’s NEEDED, on mobile.

    Typical Mozilla, in my eyes.

    Too-frequently solving the wrong problem, enacting the wrong “strategy”.
