Exporting filters from former user? (API)

I read this article: https://support.atlassian.com/jira/kb/find-owners-of-deleted-filters-in-jira-cloud/

And it seems like the API endpoint: {JIRA_BASE_URL}/rest/api/3/filter/search?expand=owner&maxResults={max_results}&startAt={start_at}" should return all of the filters. I'm an admin and in the GUI I see filters from the former user that are not being exposed by the API.

In the GUI, I can't filter on the user's name because their account is deleted and doesn't show in the dropdown list.

I've tried using the API endpoint with the user's accountID, but it only returns the 8 filters that I have view rights to.

In the GUI, I can change owners for a filter, but I can't search for the filter via API.
