<![CDATA[Why doesn't "Create Search Engine..." (in Context Menu) appear everywhere it should?]]>Why doesn't "Create Search Engine..." (when you right-click on a search box) appear when it should?

It does not appear in http://web.archive.org/.
Happily, "Create Search Engine..." appears in https://web.archive.org/web/20170807102201/http://www.fsf.org/

Why doesn't it appear in the former?

The search box on WEB.archive.org is the one that lacks the "create search engine" option, the other 2 have it as expected.

It's available in the Search box in the corner, not where you indicated.

Why not? Software should make it easy for humans. We humans shouldn't have to work around software.

As seen on the pics here, the search box on web.archive.org did not allow me to create a search engine
