Thank you sir.  I see the difference after the above mentioned
refresh . . .

 svcprop auto-snapshot:hourly 2>&1|tee |egrep 'zfs/(interval|keep astring|period astring)'

Now outputs:

 # svcprop auto-snapshot:hourly 2>&1|tee |egrep 'zfs/(interval|keep astring|period astring)'
     zfs/interval astring hours
     zfs/keep astring 2
     zfs/period astring 8

So we're now doing 3 snaps per day?
But keeping only 2?

So one is removed every day?
