[#47625] - Content not found up to 'One minute' with com_finder

When new content is created, it can take up to one minute for the content to appear in search results on the frontend.
This applies to articles (com_content) and content from extensions.
The issue only occurs with new content, not when modifying existing content.
Testing instructions
Example: Create a new article, e.g. at 12:00:05.
Start a search for this article in the frontend in the same minute (still at 12:00:xx).
Expected result
The article is found immediately.
Actual result
The article is not found at 12:00:xx, but after 12:01:00.
I suspect the cause lies in line 177 of the file searchmodel.php:
joomla-cms/components/com_finder/src/Model/SearchModel.php
Lines 176 to 177 in aa77185
Is there a specific reason for this change to the time ($nowDate)?
On a normal (live) website, this delay is probably not a problem.
However, if developers/testers create content for testing purposes, for example to test a finder plugin, this can lead to confusion.
System Information
Tested with Joomla 5.4.5 and 6.1.0
PHP 8.3

Closed, as the developers are of the opinion that this behaviour is intended.
