If you set `fuzzy` to `true`, words with a [Levenshtein distance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance) `<= 3` will be taken into account. This is a lot slower though (Apple M1, Node v19.1):

test | performance
-----|------------
non-fuzzy – `berlin charlottenburg` | 704 ops/sec
fuzzy – `berlin charlottenbrug` (note the typo) | 204 ops/sec

Setting `completion` to `false` speeds things up:

test | performance
-----|------------
completion – `Münc Hbf` | 477 ops/sec
no completion – `Münc Hbf` | 2115 ops/sec
