Hello,
I would like to better understand the difference in using list=search VS generator=search for full-text search.
I've read list=search relies on elastic search: which are the differences in indexing and differences in returned results between list=generator and generator=search ?
Are you actually using generator=search? Below you state that you're using generator=allpages, which is obviously going to give you different results.
Try an example like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ApiSandbox#action=query&list=searc... instead.
