Does it? I understand there are issues with spam in search, but assuming we don't know what we want is not at all the conclusion I draw from using search engines.

Yeah that's fair, "doesn't know what we want" might have been oversimplifying. Better phrasing would have been that there is a very hard limit on the context you're able to give when using a search engine. It's mainly keywords, and then maybe some tricks like `site:` or quotes.
