While the other reasons listed (complexity, speed, efficiency) are valid reasons for search engines to not search the entire Web every time, the statement that "most users are not interested in searching the entire Web" is not necessarily a reason for why search engines do not search the entire Web. In fact, many users may want to search the entire Web, but it is not feasible or practical for search engines to do so.
