Elliot Kirk Hello,
I think the tab hover cards feature in the new edge is better compared to the tab preview pane in legacy.
Reasons :
1. Aesthetically pleasing : This pops up on separate tabs and looks very nice
2. Takes up less space : It only shows the preview of each specific tab when we hover on it, as compared to a whole big pane opening up and showing all tabs, which I think takes lot of space and doesn't look so good either.
So yeah, tab hover cards has successfully taken the place of tab preview, and I don't think it's really needed, it would only be a utility at best.
Yet again, an option could be given to enable or disable tab preview pane, in the settings.
Hope this throws some insight into the issue.
Thank you
