In that case it does not do anything useful, sure. To get something useful we
would need to add more. A minimal example to demonstrate the use of -name /
might be
$ find / ! -name / -prune
This prints all entries in the root directory without recursing, in a way that
should work in any POSIX-compatible implementation of find.
