Good, simple, clean user interfaces are consistent. Cutesy-hacks to change consistency harm the user experience.
Microsoft Windows alt-tab has been used to switch between applications. Microsoft's Edge web browser changes the alt-tab behavior so it switches between tabs in Edge, instead of switching from Edge to the next application. This is annoying to users because it is inconsistent.
To restore alt-tab so it switches ot of Edge, in MS Windows 10 choose the MS Windows Start button, Settings App, Multitasking. In the "Alt + Tab" section, choose "Open windows only".
While considering web browser user interface annoyances, the Brave web browser can be configured to not auto-play embedded videos. In a new Brave tab, enter brave://settings/content/autoplay
Brave web browser has it's own implementation of cycle-through-tabs-in-the-app, via ctrol-tab, which can be configured.
