IB: why doesn't the title update in search results?

As a mod for a hotel forum, I spend a fair bit of time searching out threads on the same property and merging them. I then update the title, and make the thread into a master thread for the property.

Last week, I created a master thread for the Westin Lombard. Today, I wanted to ask a question on that thread. I searched for "Lombard" in title only. I picked up:

"Groundbreaking soon on Westin Lombard (Suburban Chicago)"

which was a title for a thread that had been merged into the Master Thread, and no longer exists as a standalone. I did not pick up the title for the Master Thread, though clicking on the "groundbreaking" link takes me to the Master Thread.

We encourage members to use Master Threads in Starwood. Why isn't search returning the thread title?
