        [3] [2] is solved with nip.io
        [1.1] chrome dev tools shows page width when CDT is snapped to the right
        [1.2] CDT's Application tab exist
        [1.3] CDT's Network tab is a lot easier to organize
        [4] Bookmarks doesn't open in a tab
        [5] Downloads doesn't open in a tab
