I run with two tabs --- one where I am doing work, the other where I
am reading an ebook, C-tab makes this a very nice workflow.
So now I have two tabs -- one called "Home" where I do work, one
called "EBooks" where I read. All is well for a few hours.
(length (tab-bar-tabs)) == 2
At some point, C-tab when in the Home tab switches to another tab
called "Home". When I investigate,
(length (tab-bar-tabs)) == 3 or greater ---
I've seen the above number grow as high as 7 depending on when I check
--and have to close the extra tabs using C-x t 0.
Unclear as to what interaction triggres the creation of these tabs.
Note: I cannot see, so it's not possible to catch when this happen by
eyeballing the tab-bar line -- I only notice when C-tab doesn't do
what I expect.

Now, there are 11 tabs, here is the value of tab-bar-tabs.
Notice the multiple "Home" tabs.

Sorry, I tried everything but can't reproduce the problem.
Some "Home" tabs have the property explicit-name equal to t,
but duplicates have no explicit-name.
Could you add auditory notifications to emacspeak
to notify when the number of tabs grows?
One suitable place is to define a new function for
the variable tab-bar-tabs-function, then call
tab-bar-tabs from your function, and also to count tabs
when a tab command is called.

Good idea, will try instrumenting that as you suggest.
I have a niggling suspicion that there is some interaction between eww
and tab-bar that might be causing this in my specific environment -- I
always have eww open pages in a new buffer, and set up emacspeak to
automatically do that by passing a prefix arg to the various eww
opener functions

Ah, this explains everything - recently we changed eww to open pages
in a new buffer in a new tab when tab-bar-mode is enabled.

ok, will fix at the emacspeak end. Could we make this feature customizable?

We tried to avoid adding new options, but it seems now that
a new option with the name eww-browse-url-new-window-is-tab
still needs to be added instead of relying on heuristics
of tab-bar visibility.

Yes.
1. I use EWW a lot.
2. New tab gets created when I open a new page.
3. To prevent emacs from getting "too big", I kill short-lived EWW
buffers with "Q" -- this is how the eww buffer goes away but the tab
remains
