That is just coincidence because @/.snapshot subvolume is mounted on
/.snapshot. It could also be mounted under /var/lib/snapper (insert your
path here).

btrfs does not have "top level directory" beyond single /. It is
entirely up to the user who creates it how subvolumes are named and
structured. You can well have /foo, /bar, /baz mounted as /, /var and /home.

If /foo and /foo/bar are subvolumes, then /foo/bar will have higher ID
than /foo (because it must have been created after /foo) so /foo will be
listed before /foo/bar in default sort order. Whether it will have ID
257 is entirely up to whoever created this filesytsem and its history.
