Tabs are for sites you're currently browsing, not for archival.
There's bookmarks for that.
Years ago I wiped a friends IE history with CCleaner.
She freaked out because it turned out she wasn't saving barely any favorites/bookmarks and was relying on the browser's history to "save" her visited websites.
