This is intended and was implemented with the feature Expose prefs for tabs-on-demand.

You can return to the old behavior by unchecking the box "Don't load tabs until selected" (Edit menu -> Preference -> Tabs).

There is no option for Don't load tabs until selected, so something must still be broken in the tabs menu. Only open new windows in a new tab, warn me when closing multiple tabs, warn me when opening..., always show tab bar, switch to new tab immediately.

It shows here.
Do you see anything in the error console?
