I found that last page with the BOS-HNL-LAX-PWM-BOS
circle query really fascinating for a couple of different reasons: 1) the fact that ITA could already do this in 2003, and 12 years later, most flight search engines still can't handle that kind of query, and 2) that a very similar itinerary today is less than half the price[1].
(As a side note, how awesome is it that you can deep-link to a specific fare on Google Flights?)
