  In the the vast majority of cases I have seen, people don't type
domain names, they search the web.  When they do type a domain name,
they usually type it into the Google search box.

Web != Internet.  DNS is used for much more than web sites, and many of
those things are not in a public index.  For example, most people type
in their friends' email addresses (at least into an address book).
