Things like screen or tmux can do the same in a Linux console (multiple sessions, even multiple sessions windowed on one screen). Heck, even nano and vi(m) editors have a 'multibuffer' option to have multiple file buffers. You just have to use a hotkey of some sort to switch between them.

But I get it, it's much easier to just open a new window with a click of the mouse.

I thought it's main focus was 'Debian without systemd', as in it still uses sysvinit.. but I could be wrong.
