Hi,
For now this seems to be intended behavior.

The New Tab actually takes you to the homescreen.
Do notice that the tab counter increments when searching or going to a URL(When a New Tab is actually opened)

This is subject to change and is currently under discussion in #12774 .

@isthisrubble indeed this is the expected behavior since no website has been loaded/opened.
Please file a feature request or follow the discussions from #12774. Thank you!
