Comment:

 This looks like it's already addressed.

 http://postgis.net/docs/manual-3.0/ST_SetSRID.html

 I see it in the note:


 {{{
 [Note]

 This function does not transform the geometry coordinates in any way - it
 simply sets the meta data defining the spatial reference system the
 geometry is assumed to be in. Use ST_Transform if you want to transform
 the geometry into a new projection.
 }}}
