Sorry, I understand that part. Was wondering what you meant by this (specifically the part about a "filtered down view of the world"):

"I find this better even just for the fact that I don't get the filtered down view of the world anymore - if there are things named similarly than the ones I use in the world, I want to know, so I can adjust my own naming."

It wasn't a loaded question or anything, not sure why I got down-voted either... (shrug)

Google gives you a "filter bubble", essentially exacerbating confirmation bias. That way if you search "what's wrong with Python" it won't return "snakes can hurt you".

Take a look at http://dontbubble.us

ah I gotcha. thanks for the link.
