--- Comment #1 from Tavian Barnes <tavianator at tavianator.com> ---
For the record, `-f path` is the same as specifying `path` as one of the
starting points, but it won't conflict with other options.  So you can write
`-f -print` to search a directory called `-print`, or `-f \(` if the name is an
open paren, etc.
