... but when this is production code, giving the general public this knob that can be set four ways is just shifting work from the developers to the users.
There are also going to be more bugs; the four different modes of operation are going to tweak different bugs. And if a design goal is that one tab can die without hurting the others, and you put out a comic book bragging about this, why not just implement it that way and be done with it?
