opinions on package descriptions

Hi,

I use "apt-cache search" when I'm looking for a package which may suit my needs. I was amused to get:

$ apt-cache search power | wc -l

791

$ apt-cache search "power " | wc -l

159

$ apt-cache search " power " | wc -l

151

How many non-powerful packages are there. :-)
