I always thought transforms were an odd inclusion in SVG until I tried to make my own icons/logo with it. Those curves are challenging to get right. When I got done with the second logo I decided it looked flat and I needed to skew it 10°. The thought of rewriting all of those lines and curves suddenly made rotation seem like a much much better idea. Good thing too because it looked weird next to test and I changed the angle several more times to make the kerning look right.
