The issue with tabview is that search engines will simply render a blank page, because tabview is dependent on javascript. Well that's a big problem. Would the same issue occur with the template method? I wouldn't say it's too much an issue, as that is only primarily for the small meta description. If a regular editor clicked through the link, they would see what any other would see (unless they were dumb enough to disable javascript in their browsers xD).

The template method would not have the same issue, since it's not done the same way (it's just a header with links to different pages, so you are just reaching another form of multi-link disambiguation which requires you to click a link and navigate to a completely different page, rather than proper tabs done in the way of tabview and tabber for example).

Personally, the template method looks a bit out of place and draws my attention too easily (especially as that was generally just an experimental test and never fully discussed).
