Remove unnecessary items from right-click menu in Edge
Normal users that are not web developers will probably use them less often, so it's be better to have an option to only activate them when we want to, from developer tools.

HotCakeX Yes please remove these items by default!
Average users don't know what these buttons do, and if they click them, they'll be calling IT to help because they don't know "what happened to their screen" 🙂
Even for web developers, I think "View frame source" and "Refresh frame" are often redundant, because they always appear in the menu, regardless of whether the page even has a frame. It would be nice if Edge checked this and only showed these options when needed. Firefox already does this.
I don't know if there are some technical hurdles making it difficult to adapt the right-click menu based on user settings, but if a static menu is desired, at least placing these options under a sub-heading would be somewhat better.
