And seemingly, so does your backup.

Because:
A) it works
B) the backup isn't on a DC, so if there is a catastrophic AD domain
failure, I can recreate my domain from the backup. Please remember that
you never recreate a DC from a backup (you should just demote a faulty
DC, forcibly if necessary and add a new one), you should only recreate
an entire domain from a domain backup.
