In this particular case, where the result is negative, we humans can easily recognize that something is wrong. But in other cases, where the exact match is also the best match, it’s not easy to dig through all the pages to know something is amiss. Of course, I understand that SE like Google was not designed to produce exact match for long texts like this one. But no one can deny that exact match is extremely important for finding rare/obscure stuffs. Can a search engine especially for rare, obscure stuffs (in contrast to popular search) have a niche market?
