That's the problem right there. The so called "Information Retrieval Community" does not seem to care about what users want, and they treat their users in a condescending way, ignoring an obvious problem for years, as clearly demonstrated here and elsewhere.

Why should I care about what they think? In the end of the day, they are serving the users. They are either going to be left behind, or they have to change.

For example, the newer search engines, such us, https://github.com/meilisearch/MeiliSearch, also does what T-Wand does. Users are going to vote by their feet. The "information retrieval community" be damned. It's as simple as that. Got it?
