It is a power user feature which most users won't will not appreciate. I am using Mac for about 7 years now, and almost never use tabs in Finder.

Tabs are great for saving screen real estate. Finder windows are relatively small and, with large screens, the need to cram two or more folders into the same window ceases to exist. It’s easier to remember the window to the right is my docs folder and the one to the left is the downloads one.

I stopped using Windows file explorer more than a decade ago when I learned about spatial file managers.

I have been in love with - and 10x more productive using - TotalCommander!

The ability to >98% of the file related tasks from the keyboard is very addictive!!!

You have confused terminology. TC is an example of orthodox file manager. Explorer is an example of spatial file manager.
