I think this person actually means "We can imagine doing better than DuckDuckGo".

Well, ideas are much easier than implementations.
Cliqz in Germany was one such implementation, funded in part by Mozilla but completely independent.

They wrote their own search engine.

They closed shop earlier this year.

It's kind of amazing how many people think an idea is the biggest part of a viable product.
So you want to build a team and organize finances first? That doesn't seem like a bad idea... wait...
The right question is: How to do search using open source tools?

If your goal is "to make something better than the Duck" and you succeed, the Duck dies... what is your goal now?
