If implemented well, tabs can be a nice visual reminder of recently used
buffers and UI for simple and quick mouse use.

They clearly aren't a _replacement_ for the more powerful underlying
functions, but I think they can be a useful addition (and make people
used to tabs in other programs feel warm&cozy).
