I broadly agree with your assessment that most of these are not sexual assault, even if they are inappropriate.
Tara Reade ultimately did accuse him of forced unwanted digital penetration, which if it had happened, would be absolutely sexual assault. So far this is the only allegation of that nature, but she didn’t go unambiguously public until 2020 (though there’s record of a more contemporary mention of the incident in a call to Larry King live, but the call was vague both in terms of what happened and who it involved).
However, it is still one person’s word versus another, and a singular incident. Also a lot of incidents where Tara was pretty much grifting through people, so she had a credibility problem. In the accusation itself she accuses him of going to zero to 100 faster than she could have said no, but stopping when she did say no. So ultimately by every measure and the most pessimistic interpretation of the allegations, it is still not as bad as Trump’s incidents. She alleges that he “grabbed her by the pussy” which would be a grave incident for bidens history while Trump just casually says that is something to do any old time.
The confounding part is that when I do get offered an “AI result”, it’s basically identical to the excerpt in the top “traditional search” result. It wasted a fair amount more time and energy to repeat what the top of the search said anyway. I’ve never seen the AI overview ever be more useful than the top snippet.
