I get the same "reached hourly API call limit" error, in my case to an Apple Shortcut. This occurs after just a very small number of calls, perhaps 10 in the past hour. I just received the same error after about 3 hours of inactivity. Might Shortcuts send out periodic "pings"? Another Evernote bug?

Yes, EN offers a fairly rich suite of meta-operators (e.g., intitle:, etc.) but this is of a different animal than Boolean-style searching. Consider a simple search for receipt OR (invoice AND paid) I'm not sure how this could be done in EN without multiple steps and artificial tags. I wouldn't dismiss this as an "advanced search."

It cannot be questioned that today's information management systems have shifted from a FILING paradigm to a SEARCH paradigm. Filing requires foreknowledge of what will be sought. Thus, the suggestions to tag notes when they're created presupposes one knows what will be of relevance in the future. I like Evernote and use it constantly, but it's hard to see it fulfilling its true promise without full Boolean capability (or friendlier equivalent).
