Yes, admittedly I do expect a search engine to be able to parse one of the biggest websites in the world, just how it used to for roughly a decade.

Obviously, it doesn't need to consider the upvotes directly but maybe the text inside the page. Or the date.

Does Reddit use semantics like <time> [or a microformat like <span class="dtstart"><span class="value">...] to allow proper parsing? If not then they should share at least half, probably most, of the blame IMO.
