Comment (by afercia):

 > What's the difference between this menu and a navigation menu?

 This menu has been changed to an ARIA tabs interface in #47149. The ARIA
 tabs pattern is better for content that gets updated dynamically. There's
 no real, traditional "navigation" here as in a classical page reload. The
 browser and, consequently, assistive technologies are unaware a content
 update occurred. The ARIA tabs pattern allows to indicate what the
 selected item is and also implements arrows navigation on the items so
 that is possible to tab directly from the active item to the active
 content.
