It's not an accident at all. I'm sure some sites are moving content around to make it likely you'll click on an ad. Other forms of click fraud are rife:

This site has ads that cover the content

https://tonyortega.org/

and when you try to close them you will frequently click on the ad instead of the tiny close button. Back in the day the Scientologists would have reported him for click fraud but today they are a shadow of the terror they once were.

"Suggested searches" are not ads. I'm pretty sure Google does not financially benefit from a user mis-clicking on suggested searches.
