Tabs are basically extensions to apps. Same deal. Private channels don't allow most of the tab options due to the security model and back end.

Nardotini +1 here from me. Teams is useful in general, but we organized our org structure in multiple private channels (one for each team).
The private channels are where the work happens.
Being restricted from using productivity apps in private channels is counter-intuitive and making us less effective.
+1 for adding that.
