Confusion? Do you really think there are multitudes out there who don't know if they click on the "chat" tab it will display the chat window?
Yes, you keep saying again and again and again "if it's not broken" blah blah blah. Saying it wasn't broken is just one opinion. Others felt that the default tabs behavior was poorly set up and had requested it be improved, as it was.

It used to be that the CHAT tab was always in focus.
Last week it changed http://blog.chess.com/webmaster/site-enhancements---20110616 so that the MOVES tab is always in focus - UNLESS someone types something - in which case, the CHAT tab gets the focus FOR ONE MOVE .... plus the CHAT tab has focus when the game starts.
