It really doesn't matter. The reason this was done is because it fits in better with each application being searchable (you see how this is more consistent?). Once the user realizes this once, the problem is gone. It's really not much harder to search 'settings' if you're looking for a setting than to search apps if you're looking for an app now is it? I don't understand how people make a big deal out of things like this.
- josteink 14y agoWhen you dont have immense amounts of data to search, having to put in effort to pre-filter your search results feels like unnecessary work. Filtering should only be needed/useful when the result-set is bigger than the user can handle. There is a fine line here, but I feel Microsoft missed it and stepped on the wrong side.
