A timeout coincides with a bug. Does that explain it?
The judgment behind the action
List plausible causes and choose an experiment that separates them. Inspect actual values and control flow. Keep a short evidence trail, and revise the hypothesis if the observations disagree. Fix the shared cause when multiple symptoms have the same source.
A bounded way to ask
Check whether normalization happens on both the query and title. If only one is normalized, test mixed-case inputs in both directions.
Design two inputs that distinguish query normalization from title normalization.
