Maybe it's easier to understand that a file system is mounted "on top" 
of a mount point (which is typically, but not necessarily, an empty 
directory).

There is no change of permissions involved, one is just looking at two 
different directories, that just happen to be attached at the same point 
in the file system hierarchy.

These are the permissions of the root directory of the mounted file 
system.

Here you are looking again at the mount point.
