Why Magento Indexation Gets Messy

Default Magento leaves many crawlable URL shapes that should not compete:

Parameter sprawl — filters and tracking params create near-duplicate pages
Staging leaks — non-production hosts get indexed without robots discipline
One-size robots — Magento defaults lack fine-grained rule control

Watch for: Indexation rules reduce wasteful crawl budget and thin duplicate risk.
