Keep in mind that TC is run off of an off-the-shelf forum software package. Even though the search function could be made more prominent within the layout of TC, actually modifying the search functionality would require programming that is entirely non-trivial. Meaning that to get the search function to "work better" would require a major overhaul of the underlying technology and, perhaps, even the database structure. That isn't really likely to happen, to be honest. It's a very complicated thing to do that, and once you exhaust the built-in features of a particular system, getting it to do something it wasn't specifically designed to do is usually not very easy and has negative trade-offs (in terms of accuracy, missing results, false positives, etc. etc.)

With that said, yeah, the search feature isn't perfect for sure.
