> Why has a search company compromised a flagship product's ability to search?
There are two potential reasons:
1) They have a problem with the Unicode-character, which is not that uncommon with foreign-companies, that they miss some details on a local market.
2) Most search-systems have long moved to fuzzy results, with exact search being a more and more flawed option. And this goes even deeper, as they have started to expand search terms, and show you different words with the same or even just similar meaning.
And of course, there is also the solution that the search works correct, but just doesn't show you the part where this sign is, like somewhere in the header, hidden in some alternative view or an attachment, or something like that.
