I think I see where you're coming from, but come to a different conclusion.

If you are, rightly, disappointed about low quality results in SERPs, then why not direct your frustration at Google's search algorithm? But ultimately once the algorithm has decided what to return, I don't want any of it to be tampered with. Maybe there's an argument that once you're using a black box, it might as well be the best black box it can be, but I don't agree.

I wonder whether there is a case for legal action here. Google would not have wasted time developing this rewrite engine unless it had an effect on clicks. Whether that is positive or negative, only they truly know. What if it was found that it was, or wasn't, being applied consistently to the results of their competitors, but not their own sites, for example?
