Summary0001554: find's rationale has odd comment about -name pattern matching
DescriptionIn the rationale, there's this line:
> The -name file operand was changed to use the shell pattern matching notation so that find is consistent with other utilities using pattern matching.
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/find.html

However, I've found no evidence that this is a change from historical behavior when I look at old documentation. Even the 7th edition Unix man page says -name uses shell pattern matching notation.
Desired ActionProvide details about what it was changed from.
