I was surprised they didn't have any idea how to use Find My. That and their iCloud account was all kinds of messed up.
I think we take for granted how easily these things come to us as tech people.

I'm more surprised that there's not a way to message the owner (or whomever has Find My registered for the airpods) without revealing their full information, but I guess that's a bridge too far, and they figure that Find My is good enough.

They aren’t completely wrong. You just can’t use the speaker feature to play a sound. But Find My will still work

If I remember correctly, my airpods pro (an older model) only show the last location my phone saw them, which I think means, last time they were actually paired.
I believe newer ones can be found 'anywhere' like an airtag.

That's weird, I use Find My for my AirPods case a lot and it does the "X feet away" thing as I get closer

Find nearby is a godsend.
