The fact that "they're giving regular slaps to those who pay them money in AdWords" should give us all hope. I often hear this complaint - people thinkthat Google should give them preference or not make them play by the rules just because they use Adwords. Nonsense.
Google has a business to run and Google is going to do what's in its best interest. Giving bad results to searchers just because someone pays them for Adwords would be a bad business decision. Giving faulty results to advertisers in their keyword tool would be another bad business decision. Again Google will do what's in its best interest for business.
I'd be more than happy to consider and discuss anyone's argument for how giving faulty results makes good business sense for Google.

Would you do that to your clients and would you do that if you really care about your reputation?
p.s. I still use Google, because there's no substitute for it at the moment
