      Isolation is good for security reasons. Think of the Titanic design, if not the reality. Explain icebergs and compartments here. — that’s the ELI5 version

      Also similar to “sandboxing” (MAC, SELinux). Libre Wolf is isolating tabs tailored to specific site interaction profiles like “banking” and “personal” which conserves security while also (ideally) preserving requirements needed to still interact with the site. See a similar project called Bromium.
