Until the default changes and those of us who don't like change will learn to make the effort to revert back.

I have no idea if google is actually a better search engine, just that it's a familiar one.

For most searches the average person does - aka I want to go to the wikipedia page or official site for X - the results are indistinguishable.

That's not a good measuring stick. Probably even before Google existed search engines we're good at those kinds of searches. But people use search for much more than that.
