If all you wanted to do was to find files based on their names then yes a full blown datbase index would be a bit of overkill. But, if what you want is to find every document, powerpoint presentation and email that CONTAIN the word IPV6 for example in it then that is why you want a faster Windows Search. As an engineer who has about 10 years worth of old technical emails, documents, presentations and all kinds of odds and ends the ability to easily find files that are relevant to what I am looking for is a very nice feature. And sorry for day to day corporate work Linux is a joke.
