Why when "delayed tab loading" is enabled, google and facebook still loads preemptively?

Hi,
I have the "delayed tab loading" option enabled. Yet when I start with Opera and it reloads my session, when I look at the task manager (Shift-Esc) all my Google searches and my Facebook tabs are preemptively loaded without me having to select them first!!!..
Why is that and can this behavior be changed?
Thanks.

Ouf! If that is the way it works, that is really a bad way.
I have a lots of tabs open and I don't use all of them every session, so why should it load all of them if they will not be used?
Why is it that there is not a single browser that implements something proper like, do not load any tab on startup, until the user selects that tab...
Seems to me that should not be complicated to implement.

@tito666 If someone starts a browser with several tabs opened, the most reasonable thing is to think that s/he wants the pages on those tabs to be loaded on start up.
So I guess that the progressive loading of those tabs when Opera start is the correct behavior. -

@leocg Nop, that doesn't make sens.
I have over 100 tabs opened and every session I use only maybe 10 of them.
The other point is that it doesn't just "load" the page. It creates a whole new process for that tab and a shitload of memory being used.

@tito666 What doesn't make sense is someone who needs to open 100 tabs all the time even if just 10% will be used. In fact, I think that someone who always need to have hundreds of tabs opened simply has a problem with the closing of tabs.
Those people don't need a browser feature but just learn how to close tabs.An regarding the other issue, it shouldn't be a problem in 2020.
