Those are not something you want out of a redirect or disambiguation
system. You want something that can tell the differences between cases
like [[HMS Victory]] where it's safe to assume that people are talking
about the one that was nelsons flagship and [[HMS Iron Duke]] where
you are better off questioning further.
You also want a system that highlights the key distinguishing features
of whatever is being disambiguated.
