Browsers that did not have to reload the page when you hit the back button.

Webpages designed to use the least bandwidth, load fast and be accessible.

Companies that had older staff who had enough experience to not make the same mistakes over and over again.

When a site has a redesign nowadays, I can almost always count on them breaking "Open Link in new Tab". Most recent example was Chase bank and I think Google's account security page. Same with a redesign project I just joined at work....

The behavior of the browser upon back-button depends on the cache policy of the server when it first delivered the page.
