It seems that it's all a result of optimizing search for the average user. For him it might be better, and leaving the power users aside.

I wonder whether this is an inherent conflict in search and information systems , and so we'll see the same results with the newer LLM based tools ?

I would agree if we were talking about unquoted terms. I’d like a checkbox in my account settings that make my terms act as quoted by default and I add a flag to make the search fuzzy, but at least respect the quotes, you know? Assume quotes are being used by power users and make everything else fuzzy.
