Why doesn't stdout redirection work?

man bash (or any other shell):

REDIRECTION
Before a command is executed, its input and output may be redirected using a special notation interpreted by the shell. Redirection
may also be used to open and close files for the current shell execution environment. The following redirection operators may pre
cede or appear anywhere within a simple command or may follow a command. Redirections are processed in the order they appear, from
left to right.

Each redirection that may be preceded by a file descriptor number may instead be preceded by a word of the form {varname}. In this
case, for each redirection operator except >&- and <&-, the shell will allocate a file descriptor greater than 10 and assign it to
varname. If >&- or <&- is preceded by {varname}, the value of varname defines the file descriptor to close.

In the following descriptions, if the file descriptor number is omitted, and the first character of the redirection operator is <,
the redirection refers to the standard input (file descriptor 0). If the first character of the redirection operator is >, the re
direction refers to the standard output (file descriptor 1).
