This is inherently by design. Hang on, does that also mean commands like btrfs balance start -f -sconvert=raid1 -mconvert=raid1 -dconvert=raid1 / Would only make that subvolume raid 1? Or would it make the whole "filesystem" raid 1. Regardless, the administration point of a filesystems being dependent on subvolume paths and the subvolume properties is really problematic.
