That is the case if {} contains simply a file name, but is not the case when {} 
contains a relative path as well.

/path/to/root/path/to/file
cd /path/to/root

find . -type f -exec rsync {} /path/to/dest/{}
  => /path/to/dest/path/to/file

find . -type f -exec rsync {} /path/to/dest/
  => /path/to/dest/file

10.0.0.11:/Drive5/\"{}\”
