It's weird that they don't really address the biggest reason Googles algorithm is worse now. The rampant exploitation of SEO.

Bad actors abuse the system in an attempt to be the first result, regardless of relevancy. It's harder for Google to sift the chaff out than it used to be, because they're flooded with content claiming to be related to the search keys.
