Thank you all for reaching out about this.
As it says on the flags page, all flags are experimental. Thus, you can expect that they won't persist indefinitely. Sometimes, the team removes a flagged feature because it needs more work first, or they may have just been doing testing and won't move ahead with the feature.
While we cannot speak to the Tab team's plans for this particular experiment, we do know that they're working hard to make tab management more streamlined. You are also welcome to submit feedback through the browser to let them know what you liked about Tab Grouping!

Just adding "me too" to the sadness of the missing Tab Groups in recent builds. Useful, use it all the time.
For the feature being experimental, it is in Chromium code base, has been there for quite some time and has been stable in use pretty much since its release like 2 years ago. This is a deliberate removal of functionality, not something the Edge Team developed entirely and decided to drop. My 2 cents.
