 Sorry, I posted the wrong part: this is what I really meant:

     If no expression is present, -print  will  be  used  as  the
     expression. Otherwise, if the given expression does not con-
     tain any of the primaries -exec, -ok or  -print,  the  given
     expression will be effectively replaced by:

     ( given_expression ) -print
