I'll match any file named “bar” in any subdirectory of “.” other than “foo”.

Think of “higher precedence” as implicit parentheses (even if these
parentheses wouldn't be valid zsh):

Since “^” has higher precedence, “^foo/bar” means “(^foo)/bar”. If “/”
had higher precedence, it'd mean “^(foo/bar)”, but that's not the
case.

Best regards,
