We spend most of our time communicating with humans so we’re generally better at that than communicating with algorithms and so it feels more comfortable.
Most people don’t want to learn to communicate with a search engine in its own language. Learning is hard.
Surely you see how using a search engine is a separate skill from just writing words?
Point is, people don’t want to learn. Natural language searches in the form of questions are just easier for people, because they already know how to ask questions.
Any time we use words in a way that’s different from a conversation it requires learning. That ranges from argumentation to story telling to, in this case, search queries. If it’s different from talking to another human, it’s a different skill.

what’s there to learn about using search terms
Do you think you were born knowing what search terms are?
They’re literally just words? All you need is the ability to speak a language
You weren’t born with the knowledge of written language either.

Do you really need to learn to realise the words “is” and “in” aren’t that important and that “Angelina Jolie heat” is good enough for a search query?

Yes? People aren’t born knowing how to use search engines. You learn this stuff.
I don’t think we would’ve had so many lessons on this in school if it didn’t need to be taught.
you learned to Google at school? whoa
