There seems to be a descrepency in findutils-4.2.25 between the man page & the code regarding the default regextype:

find/find.1
206:tests which occur later on the command line. Currently-implemented
207-types are emacs, posix-awk, posix-basic (this is the default),
208-posix-egrep and posix-extended.

find/find.c
512: options.regex_options = RE_SYNTAX_EMACS

bug #14243, comment 2 says the documentation was updated, but maybe this was missed.

cheers ;]
