> Google has an incentive to have people click on links.

This is true only insofar as it incentivizes people to come to Google in the first place. If Google can directly provide the information that the user is looking for, then it gains no benefit from sending the user elsewhere instead.

Again: Google's revenue comes from ads. Those ads are not on their search site. They are on the sites people click. How can you still believe, Google has no benefit from sending people to those sites?!

Second, in most cases those previews are too small to provide the information the user was looking for.

Your argument is based on false assumptions.
