Description
in the results, the page hosted at website.com/docs/examples/foo will be formatted (written in pink) as docs / examples / foo (or docs > examples > foo, depending on which formatting we decided to keep).
Could we pull the page title from the meta tag instead of using the URL ?
Some websites might not have proper page titles, but that's on them to fix that. Page titles may be a more reasonable default than the URL itself?
We probably want to avoid having to think about all the weird ways to handle transform URLs into readable text.

Research direction
Start by locating the result-formatting code and the logic that transforms URLs into readable text. Trace where page metadata is retrieved, then verify that result labels use the page title from the meta tag instead of the URL; the issue leaves the exact formatting choice open.
