| > Chrome/Firefox: Ever been reading a site and wish not to go back to the last page you visited, but the last page in that web site's hierarchy? This statement makes no sense to non-tech people. Most people don't think of sites hierarchically, at least not from a url path perspective. |

| Those are third party extensions, not browser features, and they're not consistently applied. Going from an image to a root domain is not a hierarchy and as a pathological data hoarder who has downloaded a lot of images from a lot of sites I don't understand why I'd ever want that feature. It's wild that that's their first example use case on the article. Similarly, going from page N of results to page 1 isn't "up a level in heirarchy". |

| Isn't the problem already solved at the browser level? Most (all?) modern browsers support a press/click & hold of the back button to view the back history and quickly jump to any page in that tab's history. *Edit - I left this in the wrong place, those extensions behave slightly differently. |
