Bring TABS back and have internal scrolling

In the Figma Prototyping Tutorial, you had tabs in the interface of Figma. Why have these been removed?

Additionally… this image shows that the whole bar scrolls, including the tabs area (red -dotted- line), whilst the same tabs in the left bar (for instance Layers) stays visible.

I personally switch a lot between different screens. Active tabs would improve that for me. Maybe even bring back the capitalization of those tabs. You apparently already had them, back in 2018 (when the video was made). Can these be reintroduced?

The right bar now scrolls entirely, so including the tabs (see example, with hidden red -dotted- line. Wouldn’t it be better to have its contents scroll instead? Just like it does in the Layers or Assets, within the left bar? So users won’t have to scroll to the top to switch between the Design, Prototype and Inspect mode.

Side note: When you scroll in the left Layers bar, the bottom line below the fixed ‘tabs’ is removed and the active frame stays fixed. If you re-activate tabs within the Figma interface, you may also need to check how this applies to the left bar, so its dividing lines stay on screen.
