Is there a way to prevent Safari from quitting if multiple tabs are open? A way for it to ask me like in some other browsers if I'm sure I want to quit
 
Preferences -> Tabs -> check "Confirm before closing multiple tabs or windows"

No such option

This thread is offering some solutions - although I'm not sure any of them have helped yet. I think Apple took it away permanently. Who knows.

Yeah I noticed it after starting this thread. They haven't found anything that works yet though. Kinda sucks that they took the option away. Maybe there's an extension that does this
 
This isn't a solution but it might save your day: when Safari reopens go to History and select Reopen All Windows from Last Session.

Yeah that's a good idea for when you are just looking at a page but what if you were typing something on it
