IPFS doesn't try to. Only top-level directories are added to the DHT. To fetch a child object, your node asks the same node it got the parent from.

Did they finally change that? Last I checked the default settings was to spew every block on the DHT unless you use roots mode, and to dump your entire list of wanted blocks to all 500 or so connected peers you often have, just in case maybe they have a block you want.
