Thank you so much for writing this up - this is extremely useful feedback. What you've described here is a use-case we're aware of called "recalling forgotten details," where "the developer knows what she’s doing, but doesn’t remember the specific syntax or naming. With these searches, a quick code example is what people were often after." [0][1]

Hello primarily does well for "how-to" questions at the moment; it's still early and we're working to improve results for the queries you've described.
