Why would that be confusing? Can't you open the same web page twice, once per
separate windows (not in 2 tabs within the same window)? You can have the upper
area of the same web page on one window, while the second window shows you the
lower area of the same web page. You can extend the idea to one website (i.e. 2
different web pages of the same web site). And the same is true for any file,
of any type. So, you can open the same file twice, and look at 2 different tabs
of that same file in 2 separate windows, opened at the same time.

I don't even understand what you mean. Have you actually tried it? This is
perhaps one of the oldest features available since there is GUI spreadsheet
tools. Two different worksheets of the same workbook, in two different windows,
having them open simultaneously. You can have them maximized, or sharing part
of the screen.

Such ".uno" command would be available for keyboard shortcut customization (if
at all possible, which I am not sure there is such possibility in Calc). In no
case this should be added as a default keyboard shortcut.
