Should they?

Good question.
In the very early days, we used to have the location as part of the Backup. When restoring, it would revert back the location. I think almost unanimously everyone though this was a bad idea. It's not expected for location to get restored, only the data.
I will move this to Feature Request and we can discuss further.

Yes, I can see how that would make sense, however, keeping the subdomains while allowing for the domain.tld to change is I think the best of both worlds. If there needs to be a checkbox at restore to keep or discard subdomains, that would be a bonus.
