AI Mode's missing citations limited to TOFU queries, long-tail still cited — likely a bug

gaganghotra clarifies that AI Mode's complete lack of citations seems limited to high-level TOFU queries; other and somewhat long-tail queries still show citations. He is checking more queries, suspects it may be a bug, and argues Gemini 3.8 should cite sources even for TOFU queries.
