That thing is extremely non-obvious so I tend to ignore it... =\

maybe if there was, say, a MANUAL, or TUTORIAL, or something I might
take the time to read them...

Why exactly would you do this?

Have a look at the two methods (setTransform: and transform:) When you
study the code you find they do two things, the setTransform function
does it in one shot, the transform: function merely parses it and sends
it to transformX:y:z:... I think the setTransform: version is better. In
any event, combining the two versions is definitely a win.
