You piled a whole lot of arguments, but doesn't change the fact that it's still clearly labelled. Besides, you only need to notice this box once to be able to tell whether something marked the same way is an ad or not in the future.
You're absolutely right on the real problem: it's allowed to present itself, totally convincingly to the average / naive user, as Microsoft sanctioned.
> the fact
Your opinion.
There's a label and it rights "Ad" right under the name and description.
That we're even debating that this is clearly labeled as an ad is crazy talk.
That the first result is clearly marked as an ad is an opinion. One I don't agree with.
