This would be true, if a user then did another search for something else, or close the tab. If you got an answer, you usually don't come back and click the next link in the results.

For me the pattern changed in the past few years. Before, I would take the first good answer as the answer, they used to be of good quality. Now, I tend to look at a couple (up to 4) of results to kind of cross-validate the answer before using it. Sometimes it takes me quite some "click through the results pages" to find 4 diverse enough results to validate the answer.
But looking at my kids, looking directly at the info box and considering the answer as given by God, I suppose I am an exception.
