I think you’re confusing what the word “algorithm” means. It could be literally anything! You could even write an algorithm that serves you the single most interesting, high quality, perfectly relevant piece of information found on the internet that day.

Yes obviously mainstream algorithms are designed like you said. But there’s no reason why they have to operate like that.
