    I don’t quite see the lure of vertical tabs.

      Nowadays most websites leaves half of your horizontal space empty on high resolution monitors, so you have a lot of unused real estate. Verticals tabs can also fit in more tabs while showing tab title and can implement features like collapsible tabs.

      I do, I have a 2K display with lots of horizontal space. Vertical tabs allow me to better group and see tab names in vertical space rather than trying to line up truncated tab names on a horizontal axis.
