## Summary While working on https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/474127+ I've discovered that I see exactly the same results with different `search_type` ## Steps to reproduce 1. Open search with `search_type=zoekt` https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/278964/search?scope=blobs&per_page=10&search_type=zoekt&search=query_time 1. Open search with `search_type=advanced` https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/278964/search?scope=blobs&per_page=10&search_type=advanced&search=query_time 1. You'll see exactly the same set of results The same can be reproduced in the UI: 1. https://gitlab.com/search?search=query_time&nav_source=navbar&project_id=278964&group_id=9970&search_code=true&repository_ref=master&search_type=advanced 1. https://gitlab.com/search?search=query_time&nav_source=navbar&project_id=278964&group_id=9970&search_code=true&repository_ref=master&search_type=zoekt UI says it uses a different search engine, but results are the same. <!-- Describe how one can reproduce the issue - this is very important.
