I'm very attentive to wording but I think you're reading too much into this one.

In programming and in business you talking about "finding" a solution to a problem all the time. In this case, the problem is how to improve privacy without advertising revenue dropping off a cliff. And it's not like the solution is staring you in the face -- it takes iteration and testing for it to be "found".

So I don't think Google is being disingenuous here. Nothing is being implied as a somehow natural phenomenon. Business in general is about "finding" satisfactory solutions to problems day in and day out. "Find" and "develop" are essentially synonymous and interchangeable here.
