There are at least two ways that I know of that and SVG can be included into page:

1. <img="name.svg">

2. <object data="name.svg">

in the first case - the browser treats it as a static image and renders it as such, in the second case - the browser treats it as an organic part of the page, allows javascript that is inside it to interact with the page DOM, etc.

Inspector is consistent with the browser in a way that it displays the content of an SVG in both cases.  In the first case it treats it as an image, in the second case it treats it as a source file, allows javascript debugging, and includes it's DOM as a subtree into the DOM of the page.

Can you please provide a reason for why it would be beneficial to the end user to show more than what the browser sees in the first case?
