That's all very true but any person using their own eyesight would have the same issues. This should be used as a narrowing of a search, same as Google's algorithm. Google doesn't give you the answers to your questions, they hopefully point you in the right direction, but sometimes don't give you a clear answer at all, but in clear and obvious cases it does match. Google also has programmed biases, but we all accept Google is one of the best tools.

Not to the same extent - we've got good enough binocular vision and pretty good handling of dynamic lighting.

Compare that with the usable colours and bad blacks of standard absolute colour encoded video.
