In older Debian releases, I think at least until Debian 9, it was
possible to access PVs and LVs which are stored in a LV.  The PV
inside the containing LV could be displayed and activated with
vgdisplay(8) and vgchange(8).

This scenario makes sense if you have a LV for a VM guest, that uses
LVM inside, and when you need to access file systems in the guest from
the host (while the guest is shutdown).

I don't see how this can be done in the current Debian 12.
