You are just inflating the list of required resources to suit your view of the
discussion.
Because quite frankly most of those are not required for a user. You are
spouting what an ideally developed version of a Tabbed UI should look like from
a dev perspective if it was developed from scratch, which would clearly NOT be
the case here.
