Next step: Limit the amount of memory available to Chrome so it thinks your system is running low on memory earlier.

You'll get over it, I promise.

I'd just end up using another browser that doesn't purposely slow itself down or make me miss notifications or stop background activity unnecessarily.

Why the extreme majority would want that from their browser all the time baffles me. Just to see a lower number in a resource monitor window?
