Toots not being searchable was actively requested as an anti-harassment tool.
Full-text search allows bad actors to search on words representing viewpoints they don't like (for example, "Quran" or "abortion") and attack the people using them.
I mention this to provide context, not as a defense of the idea.
@noelle My client allows me to create “custom feeds”, which seem to work a lot like a text search.
