How come google isn't able to quickly point you to such quality

Are there any useful tools that actually work to find you a *good* quality version of an image instead of bringing you countless pages of
useless junk?

General algorithmic criteria and SEO at a guess. I'm not aware that
Google or any other search engine rates images by quality either
technically or critically. The same is true for movies. If you did, for
example, a search on "thrillers movies 2020" you'd find most of the ones
suggested are simply the most promoted. There may also be a backlash
from copyright owners and copyright licensees if the best quality images
always came out top.

Found with Tineye sorted by image size.
