I expect google to ignore what I searched for and change it to something more commonly found. Even setting it to Verbatim did not yield a correct first result:

Kagi used to be so so so good at accurate searching and in the past week or two it really seems like its sadly slipping.

That makes absolute sense.

Just like a calculator shouldn't assume a "4+4" should be "corrected" to "4+1" just because incrementarion is the most common arithmetic operation by far, a self-respecting search engine autocorrect what is in essence a fairly common search just because a more common one exists.
