It’s for finding results that are less common or more unlikely to appear on other engines, so your results make sense. Why would you need yet another link to an NYT article? That space is crowded. Every engine will find it.
Where it particularly shines is finding highly specific results that get buried in other search engines. Some topics (particularly topics of high commercial interest) have become impossible to research on mainstream search engines. Marginalia will actually find informative articles about these topics rather than page after page of product results and spam.
It may not be useful to you if you’re not a researcher, writer, or someone who often needs to dig deeply into subjects beyond the level of common knowledge.
