This is normal! We do this because on Linux, the two paths may be different,
e.g on different file systems.

Try this:
$ ls -li $(which -a ls)
5910974510956900 -rwxr-xr-x 1 Admin None 148K Jul 14  2022 /bin/ls*
5910974510956900 -rwxr-xr-x 1 Admin None 148K Jul 14  2022 /usr/bin/ls*

and look at
$ mount
C:/cygwin64/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto)
C:/cygwin64/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto)
C:/cygwin64 on / type ntfs (binary,auto)
C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
D: on /cygdrive/d type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)

which shows that /usr/bin is mounted on C:/cygwin64/bin which,
inside the cgywin environment, is /bin
because on my system C:/cygwin64/ is the root e.g. /
