Strange work of API method /files/search_v2

The Dropbox API /2/files/search_v2 endpoint provides an options.path parameter which can be used to request that Dropbox restrict the search to a particular path, though there is a delay for recent changes. While Dropbox will restrict the search to a path if supplied, if a file (or parent folder) was recently moved out of that path but the search call takes place before the search index is updated, the search results may still include the file. The returned results would show the updated metadata however as the current metadata is retrieved when the result is returned.
