Assuming the proposed patch for 52886 sticks, it has a problem in that CirrusSearch doesn't update page boosts when new pages link to it or its redirects. I'm splitting this from the work to take the boosts into account because it feels lower priority and has a more complicated solution. Currently CirrusSearch doesn't take redirects into account at all, nor does it take new links into account.
Again, I forgot to add the bug number to the commits. Here are the commits in gerrit which were just merged: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/81021 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/81020
In production and working.
