They are incentives to provide the best LINK but not the best ANSWER. Whereas this product gives answers. Which is why I’m liking it a lot!

Google's been working on that for a bit more than a decade [1]. Presumably they're trying harder now.

I like getting answers, but I also want links to sources so I can see where they got it from.

I think problem is here that they hit antitrust regulators if they start giving ANSWERS instead of links.
