I wonder if there is scar tissue in this spinal region - The T12-L1 is about where my leads were inserted for my SCS and ever since I've been having horrendous lower back pain!
Do you spose it's possible the scar tissue is constricting this area and causing a form of this "Meralgia Paraesthetica" ?
Sorry, missed it by one level. For the LCFN, the upper root is L2 which exists between L1 and L2 vertebral levels. Was going off of memory which is why I said "approximately."

Anyway, close enough for government work!

To answer your question, neurology is not an exact science. There are entities called a pre/post-fixed lumbar plexus...(Google it)
