There is incentive to make you view many pages and see items. I imagine that is the highest priority.

With structured item data and putting things in correct categories (and the marketplace actually enforcing products follow this system), searching could be much better. However, it's cheaper to not do that and, combined with my above educated guess, we are where we are now.

I try to use websites with better, more-detailed search for this reason.
