Like what does "most users" mean? Does Google actually provide an answer? How does Google know what an answer looks like? Does the user know what the answer will look like? In some cases, yes. I really think faceted narrowing is much, much better than clustering, but even clustering is better than a list of relevant pages. Sometimes, though, a customer will just need a fact from a handbook (viscosity, or melting point, or raman spectra) or an appropriate equation -- and these are not well done by compendex, either, because the nature of the information indexed (cutting edge conf articles and polished journal papers, etc). In fact, for most people needing this information- search is not best, it's lookup in a known book (CRC hdbk of Chem & Phys, for example).
