That is probably by design. 

/run is a temporary filesystem (often in RAM) and since modern network 
management systems treat /etc/resolv.conf as a temporary config that is 
constantly overwritten it makes sense to symlink it over.

But it's an interesting thing to rule out since DNS resolution will try to hit 
a space in memory, rather than a traditional disk IO action. Just be aware that 
by change the symlink you might confuse whatever network management tool you 
are using.
