Howdy.

I'm on macOS X 10.15.1 Catalina. Yesterday evening I updated from
macOS X 10.15 to 10.15.1.

This morning I tried some searches using Command f (Find).

The Spotlight indexing was suddenly including in search results a slew
of files in ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup. Search
had not done that ever before.

For Mac newbies, the tilde (~/Library) character represents your Home
Account Library folder and not the other two Library folders.

The MobileSync/Backups folder is where the Mac keeps Backups of mobile
devices like iPhone and iPad. The subfolder names are gobbledegook and
no help in manually locating something.

Questions.

Is this something new?

Is it a Bug ?

Should MobileSync be added to the Exclude list in Time Machine panel?

I upgraded similarly this morning. Seems I spend 3 to 4 hours a week now upgrading an iMac and two iPads. I usually keep all devices up to date. Downloading takes little time but installing. You get box that states 40 minutes remaining, minute later 29 minutes remaining, ten minutes later it states estimating time remaining, which takes ten minutes. Then it states 29 minutes remaining. Slowly the number goes down but in no relation to time. Often goes down to one minute or less. Then takes 10 to 15 minutes to complete.
