Sure, but accusing Google of pulling some kind of shenanigans because they *added* a UI feature to focus your query (over a default that they believe is most useful to the most people) seems... Odd?
Google's mission statement is "To organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful." The mission statement *has never been* "To send people to websites." Websites were always the means because that's where the information was... Is it anymore? If Google can give you your result faster without navigating you away, it's in their mission statement to do so.
