It should be standard in linux man pages, can't speak for other unices:

Numeric arguments can be specified as
+n for greater than n,
-n for less than n,
n for exactly n.
Maybe you were fooled because it's not directly under the description of
-size.

??? maxdepth determines how deep the search will look, not the order the
search occurs. Your search only find things within 3 levels of the root,
unless your directory tree goes no deeper than that (very unlikely) the
maxdepth can't be redundant.
