And honestly the never combined feature is really really buggy, and just downright ugly with the way it resizes the bars based on the amount of text in the window's name, even when there's empty space left on the taskbar. If you have your file explorer open to c:/ the bar for the File Explorer is ridiculously tiny, for no good reason. If you want uniform, clean, consistently sized tasks that only shrink to make room when the taskbar is full, forget it.
It also just gets stuck. A lot. If you have a full bar and it needs to combine, then close a couple windows to free space, a lot of times it won't do what it's supposed to do and "ungroup" the remaining windows. It's very inconsistent about when and how it chooses to combine, uncombine, and shrink things.
It just barely works well enough that I'll grit my teeth with it on my work computer, because I don't have a choice about that, but I'm not abandoning the Windows 10 taskbar for this at home.
