>unlike the regular use of Back, you can’t Forward to undo the Back in that situation....

If you've enabled Shake To Undo in Settings>Accessibility>Touch, then you can undo/reopen the closed tab.

Right, but the reopened tab doesn’t restore to the previous scroll position as Forward does, and the tab also cannot be closed by Back anymore, both meaning that it isn’t a true Undo. These are just more inconsistencies. The problem is that iOS is full of such smaller and bigger inconsistencies.

Another thing that annoys me is when you open a new tab via Look Up > Search Web (which in a sense is quite similar to opening a link in a new tab), then that new tab cannot be closed by Back.

I wish Apple would spend a year or two in streamlining all that stuff.
