This is a good idea but not well implemented. For example, searching Python displays a relevant carousel of "meanings" - you have the snake represented, and the programming language. But choosing an item from the list simply changes the search term.
This is particularly bad with "Ruby". Perform a search for Ruby and then click the 'a pink to blood-red colored gemstone' meaning. Observe that the top result now that you have clarified is "Ruby Programming Language".
