Petroleum Expert gave 10 licenses for the Move software [1] to my University for an advertised value of 1 872 218 £ [2].
It's not clear, but for what I recall, it wasn't even permanent licenses.

For the search use case, I use Firefox search keywords [1]. It avoids a useless redirection through duckduckgo ; I use duckduckgo bangs when I don't have a keyword configured.
You can even add search keywords by right clicking on a search field -> "Add a keyword for this search". It works on intranets and internal knowledge bases too.

Speaking of Zen and QM, I think a similar point of view is held by the french philosopher Michel Bitbol[0] in his introduction of QM to the Dalaï Lama : Quantum Theory, a theory with no view of the world ?[1].
Michel Bitbol is quite a thought provoking scholar (at least for me). Unfortunately there aren't many of his books translated in English.
