Or maybe they're attempting a renaissance, back to the days when webmasters didn't control the results? Just because we don't understand Google, doesn't mean it's broken. I suggest checking these three Google searches: link:www.oed.com/ [google.com], link:dictionary.oed.com [google.com] and www.oed.com [google.com]. Google merges identical URLs to avoid double listings, which is a good feature for users. Google also chooses to credit the remaining URL with the backlinks and PR of both, which is a positive benefit to webmasters.
