e.g. Vectors - Length wouldn't be matched if user searched for vectors length so something like this would easily be fixed by excluding/filtering some symbols from titles (only) as otherwise it may match unexpected results + heavier process. Right now I am thinking of excluding the regex [-/&\(\)]

Thanks to @APickledWalrus for this finding

    Perhaps it would be interesting to use string comparison algorithms such as Levenshtein or Jaro-Winkler to provide results similar to the search if there are no results with the strict search?
