What are the advantages of this over

    mdfind -onlyin . <str>

The author probably wanted a simple command, that required as few parameters as needed.
It searches the contents of files, not just the names of files.
So does mdfind.
I stand corrected.

(I tested before I posted, but forgot MD indexing was turned off.)
