You think you’re getting the full set of possible search results from which you then freely choose … but that’s not how it works. They have a ranker behind the scenes that decides what you get the see.

We are comparing the concepts not the misbehavior of providers.

Yes conceptually the search engine is better in that way. But we don’t live in a conceptual world. We are very much exposed to the misbehavior of providers so we cannot ignore them in the evaluation.

Of course, I agree with that and new search engines without caveats are built such as - https://ipfs-search.com/#/ which is not centralized. If the concept is alive new providers will come.
