Ask HN: Why is on-device search terrible?

My search experience across a lot of products is, to put it bluntly, garbage. Apple Mail, Gmail App on Android, Finder search, Windows Explorer search, MacOs Spotlight... rarely find what I'm looking for.

Why is it so bad? Are indexes / Io ops really that expensive?
