Slurs in Tabs with stems should be note head side rather than stem side.
Currently, in a Tab staff with stems (common and full types), and with the input of two voices, the slurs are associated with these stems. This leads to such difficulties: #70906: REGRESSION: Slurs in tab staff with stems are badly centered
And, I guess, to other bugs or unexpected results, like here: #60736: Combination of beams and slurs works badly with two voices in Tab staff common
This point was discussed in comment # 25 and followings, here: #69846: Ties and slurs have a mirror effect by entering two voices in Tab/standard linked staves
After thinking about this, and especially found examples of published scores, I have come to believe that it is a mistake to place these slurs "stem side". It should be "note head side" (ie numbers/letters for the Tabs)
An example for now:
Another, etc.
Comments
While it is true that slurs should not go to the end of the stem, but to the note heads, it seems to me that the provided examples place them on the 'wrong' side of the note heads: for voice 2, as it is the case of the triplets in your examples, slurs should be below the note heads, not above, like in the standard staff.
I just pushed to github a PR fixing the slur vertical position (but keeping the 'standard' orientation: above note heads for voice 1 and below for voice 2; in case, slurs can always by flipped with [X]): https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/2209
Fixed in branch master, commit 676095c12c
Fix #74561 - TAB: slurs attached to note heads with stems beside staff

__The issue__:
In tabs with the "stems beside staves" option and several voices, slurs are currently drawn at the end of the staff, which is not customary.
__The fix__:
This fix draws the slurs always attached to note heads, both with a single voice and with multiple voices.
