    Google knows that the more irrelevant results it returns, the longer you spend looking, which translates into more opportunities to show ads.

    Which is ironic, as Google only managed to get as far as they did by doing the exact opposite in an era where Alta Vista and the small handful of other OG search engines were focused on maximizing revenue via ads.

    Google has become that which they sought to destroy.
