Looks like "find" is yet another command with the Examples section at the very bottom. I suppose that's the convention or something, but sometimes I do run into a man page with the examples at the top, and it takes a lot of effort not to jump up and shout "Thank you!" loud enough for the author to hear me.
The brain is a powerful inference engine. A few well-chosen examples can teach 95% of normal people 95% of what they need to know (numbers pulled out of my butt, 2016). Put good examples at the top and marvel at how many more people actually seem like they RTFM.
