7. Vertical tabs can easily have nesting (subtrees), just like those file manager left hand side windows. So you can structure your tabs better.

Theoretically also possible with horizontal tabs.
But not as scalable. You either have a very wide horizontal ribbon which needs a lot of side scrolling, or a shallow depth that doesn't allow you to group as much.

There's a reason every tree/file explorer in existence is vertical :-)
