Perhaps it is a matter of what we are used to.

Earlier today, someone asked me a question about LARGEDS 
support for JES2 SPOOL and I did a search in if the JES2 
bookshelf in the Softcopy reader to quickly find the information 
I needed.

Later, I did the same search in InfoCenter.  I found it to be inferior.

- Softcopy reader tells me which books have hits and I can then 
look at the hits in each book.  Infocenter just lists all of the hits 
with no indication AFAICT which book they are from until I open 
them.

- I can open each hit in a separate window with the Softcopy 
reader.  In Infocenter, I can also open each hit in a new window 
(or tab), but when I do, the search text is not highlighted.

- Infocenter has many false hits.  For my search for LARGEDS, 
it turned up several entries in the manuals with the word "large"
