That point only applies if you think of Google as a 'search' company. I would argue that Google is an internet services company (that is funded by advertising rather than subscriptions) that 'owns' search. Arguments can be made on whose office suites are better, whose maps systems are better, whose social networks are better and whose phone OS is better, but Google has picked search and, boy! Do they own it.
