In searches, we have options: All of the following are true and Any of the following are true. Please add None of the following are true as a way to invoke global or sub-global exclusions to the search list.

I don’t recall seeing this suggestion before – most searches can already be accommodated by boolean operators and/or multiple predicates. I would assume that if there were a need for this it would have been mentioned frequently in past years.
What is an example of a search that would contain “None” as a conditional predicate and cannot be accomplished with existing smart group syntax?
Example: Search for all files that do NOT contain .aux and .log as file extensions in a directory of files where the list of other file extensions can potentially be far more extensive or even unknown.
