This statement is untrue in two respects:
• the current eww-setup-buffer behavior also affects the “single
*eww* buffer” case;
• I’ve seen questions regarding multi-buffer EWW usage on IRC as
soon as 24.4 got released; presumably, this means that there
/are/ EWW users that are interested in this usage pattern.
Besides, there’re many more Emacs users which use other browsers
in either multi-window or multi-tab configuration. I do not
believe they will just happily forget about their long-time
preferences when considering switching to EWW.

Objection.
