Follow-up Comment #1:
Your complaint is the same as in bug 50780. Quoting from my response there,
with a tweak of -printf changed to -print0:
When two expressions are written as 'A B', find behaves if you had instead
written 'A -a B'. The -a operator is short-circuiting: if expression A returns
false, expression B is not attempted; but if expression A returns true, then
expression B is used.
When you write -print0 first, it always executes (everything gets printed),
then you filter out the files, but do nothing further with the files you
filtered.
When you write -print0 second, it only executes on the files that got past the
-type filter.
