I don't think it should be removed at all, the tab bar uses no extra pixel area but instead utilising the already existing title bar area so it's only a net benefit and the tabs features are optional.
"Good news" would be removing tabs completely - they are useful for browsers where you can read one thing at once, not for explorer where you often want to drag and drop between two different things and it's useful to see them both at the same time
As with many things, should be a feature which can be turned on or off, personally have no need or use for it and prefer opening separate windows. Something I would like to see is the inclusion of a group in the left hand navigation pane which lists currently active folders so you could drag and drop from the focus Explorer window to another folder via that. A lot of the time I Control+C then Control+V to the appropriate window or just drag between windows but sometimes it is handy to be able to drag quickly in the same window.
