I’m more wondering why you’re clicking on the completely unnecessary box to begin with. It never made sense to add these, might as well just render a giant upwards arrow.

Well … the box is just a remenant of the search web pages.
I think it does make sense to have a separate search box for web-only searches tough. Say you’re sitting next to a coworker and you’re talking about Anna Karenina and you want to look something up, but typing “an…” in the address bar will pull up “Anastasia likes it big and hard” from your bookmarks because you forgot to disable bookmark search
