Except for when you ask it to determine if a thing exists by describing its properties

Basic search can't answer that either. You're describing a task neither system is well equipped to accomplish.

With basic search, it is extremely obvious that that feature does not exist.

With conversational search, the search itself gaslights you into believing it has this feature, as it understands how to syntactically parse the question, and then answers it confidently with a wrong answer.

I would much rather buy a car that cannot fly, knowing it cannot fly, than a car that literally talks to you and tells you it can fly, and sometimes manages to glide a bit, but also randomly nose dives into the ground whilst airborne.
