[Implemented] Please improve the search function (ie & vs and , II vs 2 vs two )

im curious if this has been implemented (and i should report a bug) , or if it has not been implemented yet:

please improve web client (and more importantly, plex apps ) search functionality:

movie: Bill & Ted
search: bill and ted
(search should give a result but does not)

another example:
movie: Tom & Jerry
search: tom and jerry
(search should give a result but does not, im refering to the 2021 tom & jerry movie fwiw)

in a large library, too many results are better than too few, in my opinion.
thanks

(i also wish there was a way to re-open a prior thread, or increase lockout to 1 year → there are way too many issues that dont get resolved in 90 days after the last reply), ie in this case, this thread:

As luck would have it, a change which improves exactly this is already underway.
