I think something weird is going on, unless I'm missing something obvious while looking at the logs.
Overall it seems like the option to include string identifiers is used way more frequently than I would expect, but I'm not sure whether that's user-generated data or bots, and the only way to determine that would be to have UX logs.
The script I used is here, with the CSV data for 3 weeks: https://gist.github.com/flodolo/a4b89c2fe6c456de2162be16e24db4be
Including string identifiers by default is relatively harmless. It's early enough that we can change the option to
Exclude string identifiers, set toFalseby default. Alternatively, we can set the current option toTrueby default.The number of searches excluding source strings is also higher than I expect, but I wouldn't touch that (unlike the other, it would restrict the number of results).
The data is particularly fishy when you look at the trend of percentages. Maybe we need to look at the data again, on a busier week (not in the middle of end-of-year holidays).
