Why is /etc/pve not stored directly in my zfs dataset?

Due to other reasons I wanted to restore /etc/pve/status.cfg from one of my zfs snapshots that sanoid makes. When when I went into /.zfs/snapshot/autosnap_2021-02-26_00:00:01_daily/etc/pve that folder was empty which I found unusual.

I checked all my zfs datasets and there weren't any mounted at /etc/pve so I checked mount:

Code:
$mount | grep etc
/dev/fuse on /etc/pve type fuse (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other)

What's the deal with this?
