Greedy search vs BFS isn’t a debate—it’s a *context* thing.

BFS for guaranteed correctness (think GPS routing).
Greedy for when you need *something* fast (think real-time decision making).

If you’re learning, Codecademy’s algo courses cover both pretty well.

Just... don’t use greedy search if your problem has lots of local optima. You’ll regret it.
