I don't think it's that easy. The syntax of `find` is weird enough as it is, with flags that need to be passed in in the correct order and so many options to choose. So on top of all of that, one now needs to learn an exclusive new regex or globbing system. I don't see that as any easier to learn than remembering to put quotes around the search term. I don't disagree with your central point that this problem can be fixed with better design. But the ergonomics are a hard problem to solve.
