In contrast a hierarchical tab structure can act both as the stuff I'm currently working on as well as a way to store all things I find interesting in named groups. If you didn't manually tag all your bookmarks, ideally with a consistent naming scheme, finding certain sites again can be quite a task. But I know what tab group a certain website that I last used 2 years ago and can't remember the name/url of has to be in. It's basically the web version of a file manager. Why would I spend time to organise bookmarks in some folder structure if the structure already exists in the tab bar, always up to date?
And tabs solve this problem how? In most browsers they aren’t even searchable.
The only advantage over a folder of bookmarks is that you can close one with a shortcuts, whereas bookmarks require several clicks.
And Firefox automatically searches all tabs in addition to bookmarks whenever you type in the address bar, and lets you jump to that tab directly.
300 tabs! I guess there is nothing more to discuss.
That argument makes no sense. Both bookmarks as well as persistent tabs are not something you'd use in incognito mode. Also, if you use incognito mode for anything that should survive a crash you're probably using it wrong. Firefox and Chrome let you use separate profiles for a reason.

No need to be condescending. Especially not considering a few years ago I also thought it's crazy. Truth is, it's simply how bookmarks should have been designed from the start. If you disagree that doesn't bother me, but your point about browser crashes is still not accurate.
