Umm, what happened to all the stickies?

I edited the FAQ and un-sticked a lot of those as they were often referred to as "obscuring" the clarity (too many stickies kill the stickies). And now with the clear "search trick" explained in the FAQ, it'll be very easy to find them again (I think... hope... :)).
 
The only problem I can see with the google search way is the way the results are sorted. Recent posts won't be searchable until found by a google bot. Results are sorted by relevance as determined by how many sites link to it.
So it fails in different ways than the other search.
 
What could possibly be the logic in that? Saving bandwidth by limiting the amount of searches?
