It is because microG isn't an app but a system component of the operating system. It gets baked in when building the system.

So it's LineageOS for microG for (LineageOS unofficial fork)?

It's simply a fork of LineageOS designed to run microG out of the box, the builds are there for ease of use. microG is still a separate project from LineageOS. They are "LineageOS [builds meant] for [use with] microG".
