    I would suggest that you make updates to your script
    1.Remove the if Exists
    2.Replace the for loop with a while Exists loop (this also would eliminate the need to specify the number of tabs)

    Also the if Exists will wait for the default timeout of 10 seconds before proceeding, so you will need to change the default time out and restore it back when done.

    I have not tried this modified code but should give you the idea.

    function closetabs()
{
  var tabContainer = NameMapping.Sys.TRAFiX.HwndSource_MainWindow1.MainWindow1_.dockLayoutManager.mainlayoutGroup.mainDocumentGroup;

  // Change default timeout from x seconds to one second
  var TimeoutValue;
  TimeoutValue = Options.Run.Timeout;
  Options.Run.Timeout = 1000;
  
  // Use while exists loop 
  var tab = tabContainer.WPFObject("DocumentPaneItem", "", 1); // Always use first tab
  while(tab.Exists == true)
    tab.Click(tab.Width-10,tab.Height/2);
    var tab = tabContainer.WPFObject("DocumentPaneItem", "", 1); // Always use first tab
  
  // Restore default timeout back to x seconds
  Options.Run.Timeout = TimeoutValue;
}

The code you have written, implies that the objects actually exists, and if it doesn't exist then TC will wait 10 seconds before continuing with the next step (10 seconds is based on the auto-wait timeout in Project Settings -> Playback).

To make your code better, use the Find or FindChild method. For example,

function closetabs() {
    // Use Aliases instead of long names
    var tabContainer = NameMapping.Sys.TRAFiX.HwndSource_MainWindow1.MainWindow1_.dockLayoutManager.mainlayoutGroup.mainDocumentGroup;
    
    for (var i = 2; i < tabContainer.ChildCount; i++) {
        var tab = tabContainer.FindChild("ObjectIdentifier", "WPFObject(\"DocumentPaneItem\", \"\", i)");
        if (tab.Exists) {
            tab.Close(); // Check if tab has Close method
        }
    }
}
