Unsubscribed mailboxes are not shown in thunderbird, while subscriptions being stored server side, not in your local thunderbird.
IMHO I don't need any subscriptions, I would like to appear the imported cyrus folders and subfolders as subfolders in dovecot. The directory structure seperated by '.' in the folders names in my Maildir is exactly how I would like to have it in Thunderbird.
No, strictly speaking you don't need subscriptions, but Thunderbird is configured to display only subscribed folders by default.
You can configure thunderbird to not use subscriptions: Edit > Settings > Edit configuration mail.server.default.using_subscription false
Under Account Settings > Server Settings > Extended you have the possibility to only display subscribed folders. So you might want to remove the checkmark in order to display even unsubscribed folders.
