I have a vague memory of seeing either a m.d.platform or blog post mentioning
the use of transforms as an alternative to absolute or relative positioning, in

Does this apply to all transforms, in particular translate(0, 0)? Would it
therefore be a bad idea to sprinkle translate(0, 0) on elements that never end
up with a transform? What happens when you remove the transform?
Only animated or 3D transforms get this treatment. Sprinkling translate(0,0)
everywhere won't have much effect, other than making every element a CSS
stacking context and slowing down painting a little bit.
Fair enough, I was just wondering whether it was worth optimising some
code for the common case of a zero translation. (Mind you I don't know
what the effect, if any, of an explicit zero margin style is on an
element whose computed margin is already zero.)
