The discussion is not boolean. It is not about disagreeing or not
that it should be easy, but about *how* easy it should be.

One thing that is being forgotten here, in my opinion, is that there
is, indeed, a thing such as "too easy". Usually, the more effective
a system is when successfully guesses what the user wants, the more
frustrating it is when it fails.

It *says* it does. Try 'brittany spears' and check the below results
it *says* it corresponds to 'brittany spears'. They all actually
correspond to 'britney' (as evidenced by the bolding). If I remember
correctly, the only to effectively enforce the spelling is using
double-quotes, and even so your mileage may vary.
