Yeah, I'm pushing back hard on algorithms and ranking here. Not sure if that's what you mean. I like that it is a dumb tool that isn't doing any concealed magic. It's absolutely apparent how it ranks things. It's then up to the human to explore and curate and shape from there.
However, I do see a place for search. I would love to add search terms like 'Nicholas Cage' and any time his name comes up (or perhaps even a related topic) I can track that.
