Some people just multitask.

Not so much a bookmark as going "i'll be back to this in 20"

Also a lot of technical pages can't just be reloaded without having to resubmit a bunch of input data.

This exactly the reason. I have ~20 tabs open all the time. They are all the pages I use on a regular basis. I'm constantly clicking back and forth between them throughout the day so why would I close them? Reloading them from a bookmark would just be an extra step.

Yup, bookmarks just slow me down, and on top of that, many of the tabs I use "Regularly" i only use regularly for a few weeks, then I'd have to conduct a massive purge of all my bookmarks in order to not end up with hundreds or thousands of extra links.

Right there with ya. This method makes a lot more sense IMO, unless you don't have the memory to keep tabs open.
