It's a bit odd that you have to query a filesystem-specific value to get simple memory usage stats.
Despite having File System, ZFS is a lot more than just file system. Sooner you understand and make peace with it, easier it is to use it.
Which is exactly (part of) why people call ZFS a "rampant layering violation"!
