I mean... getting an answer of "October 20th, 2019" is nice, but also that's Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, etc. pulling data from some other website and not getting them the click. So I don't know if you're actually concerned so much about SEO.
Regarding the general concept of SEO, I wrote some of my thoughts about it here: https://austingwalters.com/is-search-solved/ https://austingwalters.com/is-search-solved/
But essentially, Google has perverse incentives as a search provider. They don't want to give you the best answer either. They want you to click ads. SEO has actually very little to do with it in my opinion.
