A pretty clunky way to handle the issue. No options other than setting a maximum number of open tabs. Once max is reached, oldest tabs begin to close automatically with no way to recover them. Tab Wrangler is a MUCH more elegant solution.

Is Auto-reduce Tabs Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Auto-reduce Tabs does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
Auto-reduce Tabs is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
