I went through exactly the same steps. Safari finally showing Favicons in the tab bar gave me the final push. This is probably the case for a bunch of "power users" I'd guess.

As Gruber (https://daringfireball.net/2017/08/safari_should_display_fav...) said:

If only Safari had proper extensions, I'd give it a go. Unfortunately, Apple has crippled them so badly.
