My iPhone and Apple Watch storage doesn’t make sense?

so I was just checking the storage on my Apple Watch SE (9.5.2) and noticed my Apple Music app is using 2.2 gb of space, but my iPhone (13 pro max) is only using 250 mb. Can someone tell me why my Apple Watch is using so much more data for music than my iPhone?

I suspect those music files are being downloaded to your watch but the iPhone is streaming them from the cloud.
