Why does there have to be more than three letters to do a keyword search? If I have a picture of a dog, cat, my friend Bob or Amy I and others can't search for those images? I can't believe I just noticed this.

While doing a search of this forum I entered "keywords three characters letters" and I did find some threads that mentioned the problem but couldn't find an answer as to why the greater than three letter rule exists. I did find this amusing though: "The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search: three" Three is the most important word in the search.
