From the Save & Edit description:
saves the newest content edits while keeping the user on the node edit page. This feature allows users to manually save drafts as they work on site content without getting distracted by a redirect to the content page.
This should be the default action for the Save button: the user should be able to decide by themselves if they want to see the front-end of the node or to go to the list of content. And the same should happen for Taxonomies and other entities. We should decouple the action for Saving, the action for Publishing and the action for Redirecting. In here, I would focus on decoupling the Save from the redirect itself.

Moving out of the Node category as this is entity type agnostic functionality.
We have what looks like a well maintained and well used contrib module with this functionality https://www.drupal.org/project/save_edit →
Do we need this in core? Given this was originally created in 2009 and there hasn't really been a huge amount of input especially since 2016 I'm not sure it has the backing required given how much it would impact.

I think #239715: UMN Usability: Where do forms redirect to? → is still a problem in that there's no consistency where entity forms redirect to after saving. However if this the agreed solution to that it could use an issue summary update.
