If you set fuzzy to true, words with a 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
