I don't have an issue with the fact that there may be a hidden 0th tab in the window object, but I can't make the numbers work in any way that rationalize the above results.

So if you opened a window (tab 0), created two new tabs (tabs 1 and 2), then closed the first two tabs, you'd be left with tab 2 in index position 1.
