Because they are making so that we get less results that are just cheating the system to show up at the top?

No, because they are failing to hide low quality search results. Something the would invest more money in if an alternative search engine existed.

There are so many websites now that just shouldn't exist at all. And they wouldn't exist if Google didn't send tons of traffic their way.

What websites do you think shouldn’t be allowed to exist here?

You find what you search for, shitty companies game the system with SEO because they are shitty and it’s the only way for them to get access.

Google is trying to make that harder for them to do.

Why is them making SEO harder a bad thing?
