The "flagged" you say with the exclamation point is the "important" mark. You can search for these messages with "Status - is - important". They are clearly different things since you may want to mark something unimportant for follow up (it may be urgent but not important).

Here is the wording comparison for the two features in different contexts:

Column names: "flagged" and "flag status".
Search folder names: "status - is - important" and "follow up - is flagged".
Right-click for activation: "mark as important" and "mark for follow up".
Right-click for deactivation: "mark as unimportant" and "flag completed / clear flag".
