I think this is just the result of Google (particularly search) being very optimized for size/performance with little weight given to readability. It's probably minified or compiled from some other representation.
it's not clear what the user has to pay for...
does this search engine have its own index or what?
in principle you can make money on a paid search engine but not with this model of services offered to users
FWIW as a counterpoint, I’ve been giving them money for 2 years now and every cent has been worth it a hundred times over. A shame that effective search is now a luxury item, but it is what it is.
How is that neat and tidy? Looks like the usual "put everything on one long line!" except for some inline CSS of someone who didn't get that memo
