Hey, at least it ain't Google.

Let's say I wanted to search for pictures of Ellen Page, which do you think gives more accurate results for the query?

That's an interesting case. I honestly don't know what is more accurate here: to show more recent photos after the transition or ignore that and mostly show the older photos that reflect the name (but not the person) more accurately.

I just tried this. Most of the pictures on a google image search for "ellen page" are actually Ellen and not Elliot.
