Random results from search query

I’m attempting to do to a basic query with a dictionary of over 1000 merchants. For many of my queries, I get results which just seem to be wrong.

Query: BIKKURIJAPANESE RESTAURATORONTO ON

My options:

var options = {
  shouldSort: true,
  includeScore: true,
  includeMatches: true,
  threshold: 0.03,
  location: 0,
  distance: 10,
  maxPatternLength: 100,
  minMatchCharLength: 8,
  keys: [
    "merchant_name"
  ]
};

My example dictionary:

[
    {
    "merchant_name": "FINN AIR",
    "category_code": 5260,
    "master_code": "Business_Expense"
  },
  {
    "merchant_name": "AER LINGUS",
    "category_code": 5260,
    "master_code": "Business_Expense"


  },
  {
    "merchant_name": "AIR LANKA",
    "category_code": 5260,
    "master_code": "Business_Expense"
  }
 ]

My result:

[
  {
    "item": {
      "merchant_name": "FINN AIR",
      "category_code": 5260,
      "master_code": "Business_Expense"
    },
    "matches": [],
    "score": 0.029411764705882353
  },
  {
    "item": {
      "merchant_name": "AIR LANKA",
      "category_code": 5260,
      "master_code": "Business_Expense"
    },
    "matches": [],
    "score": 0.029411764705882353
  }
]

Why is my query matching FINN AIR if they do not seem to be similar at all? How can this be with a high threshold of 0.03? Lastly, are minimum character length, location, and threshold being overwritten by threshold? If not what role are they playing in this case?

Thanks for your help!

Oops sorry for the noise.  I though this was  new issue but I see it’s a comment on an old (detailed) one.
