Exceeeeept, Edge doesn't restore those sessions or evidently do anything with this data, suggesting a regression on how the tab history is handled.

I mean, good story. 6 years ago it might have even been realistic for ms. These days, the middle level product manager who did that would rapidly find themselves on a high speed track to a new employer.

The Edge team isn't a bunch of faceless goons. Heck, a lot of them are really active in the browser development community and you can see they're trying really hard.

As much fun as it is to carry on the Slashdot tradition and make fun of every bug at MS as indicative of a toxic and stupid culture, maybe that's not entirely appropriate anymore.

I mean, it's not like Firefox and chrome haven't had bugs in this vein before. Hell, neither can fully protect repeatedly visited private urls on Android either.
