"You can't tailor your search or refine it based on values and properties specific to your categorical search."
It's a nice idea but to be honest this is out of reach for 98% of internet users. I've probably explained to my mom what a blog is half a dozen times and still doesn't get it. She also refuses to stop double clicking on links...
A search engine for savvy people would also not be a great business position because those type of people don't click on ads. There was an article last week on Hacker News that 8% of internet users account for 85% of all clicks.

For those of us who travel in tech savvy circles, I think it's all too easy to forget that his mom absolutely is the typical Internet user, as depressing as I sometimes find that prospect. Or at least there's enough savvy folks to be a sizable marketing opportunity. I'm not disagreeing with that, but don't think for a second that the majority have any real idea what these Interwebs are all about.
