I do it all the time because the address bar and the search bar are the same bar, on mobile at least. Try it. You open a new tab and get a page with a prompt to type the search term or web address. If you type in the full url with no typos you will be redirected to the correct website. If you do not type the full url you're getting search results. I do not do this intentionally, I'm just lazy and dumb and it gives you that drop down that looks like it's saying "oh look here is a link to like Walmart or whatever" so you click on it but it's search results. This was a very intentional design choice on Google's part.
