The solution is easy though, you can use :tcd to set the root dir per tab for the project tooling in this tab and I never had any issues with separate projects this way.

I guess the way we operate terminal tabs and splits is just something we get used to once and never change, even if it tooling to do it starts to layer on top of each other :)

Yea you have a workflow and usually stick to it if it's good enough. For me I have many projects in different tmux windows and I name them to keep an overview.

I am convinced that having all of this in vim would make it harder for me to find things :)

But you are right.. I use splits inside Vim and with Tmux and sometimes I get confused when switching.
