Can you explain what's your reasoning behind this 'because X it needs
Y'? I don't follow.

Available free space is important to me, so I want snapshots to be deduplicated as well. Since I cannot deduplicate snapshots because they are read-only, then the data must be already deduplicated before the snapshots are taken. I do not consider the hourly snapshots because in a day they will be gone anyway, but daily snapshots will stay there for much longer so I want them to be deduplicated.
