Oh feel free. I'm just telling you that you aren't entitled to anything. And that complaining is pointless.

Google is way past not listening to its users, power-users or regular users alike, as far as Chrome goes. They have a bigger strategy and Chrome is just one of many means to that end.

Make no mistake about it: Chrome will be bent and reshaped to fit that strategy, not your needs or desires.

I am entitled to complain and I don't think it is pointless at all. As you say, Chrome is part of a larger commercial strategy, but no such strategy can ever be completely detached from what people want.

In this particular case I'm actually pretty sure they will listen, at least partly. Forcing people to show their browser history to everyone around the desk every time you open a new tab has no future. This bug will be gone very very quickly.

Also, we need to finally realize that we are in fact paying customers of Google. The currency in the ad based parts of the economy is our attention. Using Chrome is paying Google. Chrome is how they gain privileged access to our attention. That is their strategy.
