Comment (by afercia):

 Thanks @melchoyce for looking into this! There's a (historical) problem to
 consider though:
 - the "tabs" in the about page, or for example the ones in the Menus page,
 are actually just links that point to a different page: clicking on them
 triggers navigation
 - instead, the "tabs" in the media views toggle the visibility of "in-
 page" content

 Although the interaction and semantics are very different, historically
 these two patterns always used the same styling. Instead of using the same
 styling, it would be great to differentiate it to convey also visually
 these are two differents UI patterns with very different behavior.

 See also #43398 and #47149.

 Also, the Site Health page introduced a new design for the (link) tabs. I
 do realize differentiating the design would probably require some major
 refactoring. Ideally, core should just provide templating functions for
 these two patterns, so that also plugin authors would be able to just use
 the patterns that core provides. For now, I'd rather suggest to not use
 the same design.
