Looking up a search term + the name of a website gives poor results

If I search up javascript undefined, I get fairly good results, although none of the results immediately show me Stackoverflow answers. But if I instruct it to get search results from Stackoverflow explicitly by appending stackoverflow to my query, I only get 2 results:

Maybe it would be a good idea to add a "discussions" tab to only search discussion websites?

For what it's worth Stract accepts the site: parameter: Web search for 'javascript undefined site:stackoverflow.com' showing results for Stack Overflow However, just adding "stackoverflow" is still more user friendly.

Having a similar problem with the query time element site:developer.mozilla.org when searching for the mdn web docs:

Where I was expecting: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/time
