Google nailed the search engine interface given current tech. However, the interface is precisely why I changed my default search engine to DDG. ( Since I can always fall back to Google with !g and DDG gives me better control over the search.) So I can think of a lot of situations where a Watson like search would be more appropriate than a Google based one. For example many Wikipedia searches, most of the time I don't look for a in depth article, but only for an answer to a specific question. But I know that skimming Wikipedia is probably faster than looking for the specific answer in the open web.
