It's been a long time since I worked on e-commerce but what you say makes no sense. Search is hard. Humans are unreliable. Data quality is shit, especially if you allow third party participation. It's hard enough to do it without shenanigans.
Google is not a shop. They do want you to click on ads, you are the product after all. They cater to their customers, the advertisers.
For Amazon, I don't remember that ever being supported. Even if it was, code needs to be maintained and if people didn't use it, it doesn't make sense to keep it. They have metrics for that.

"we live in a society"
