Seems reasonable.
In my case it actually saved me having to remember to go and do zfs
destroy cube/projects/lost+found :-) but I didn't think it was a feature
just for that so I asked.
I don't see any real reason to change it. The only reason might be if
people expect that ZFS data set names should always be their file system
mount point minus the leading '/';

I accidentally tried to create a ZFS file system called lost+found[1]

Why is that ?
[1] cd /export/projects (where that is a ufs file system)
for i in * ; do
zfs create cube/projects/$i
done
