Any reason why Apple Mail Search can only find PARTS of a zoom link?

I noticed that Apple Mail's "search" feature can find the Beginning (or Entirety) of a string of non-punctuation characters within a zoom link in an email.  It cannot find the Middles or Ends.  

 

E.g. if the link (in this made-up example) is:

…..zoom.us/j/83359956229?pwd=aXMpN0X6M6EvL2tUH1B5V2lvMkh2KF09

 

THEN: 

It can find “83359956229” and “8335” but not “9956” or “6229”

 

Likewise it can find “aXMpN0X6M6EvL2tUH1B5V2lvMkh2KF09”    and “aXMp”  but not “UH1B” or “KF09”

 

Why would this be?

    Hey @jds, this would be the search functionality within Apple iCloud Mail, not sure this would be a Zoom related issue. This Apple Support KB on Search for emails in Mail on Mac may help clarify things.
