I guess the = breaks the search; it's discussed in CONNECTION SECTION

line 389

   connection.mdns
           If unspecified, the ultimate default values depends on the DNS plugin. With systemd-resolved the
           default currently is "no" (0) and for all other plugins also "no" (0).

There actually is a reference to nm-settings just above.

line 369

 Not all properties can be overwritten, only the following properties are supported to have their default
       values configured (see nm-settings(5) for details). A default value is only consulted if the
       corresponding per-connection value explicitly allows for that.
