Anthony gave me a workable solution, but it would have been thoroughly
unacceptable to have been forced to use your suggestion. If this was
the only possible solution, in my mind, Google Search could be labeled
as broken.
It's borderline counterintuitive garbage even taking into account
Anthony's solution.
