Comment (by strk):

 Transforming individual edges or the final geometry won't make any
 difference as transformation happens on a vertex-by-vertex basis, no
 matter how they are connected.

 To prove this, I created a table with the inputs in #6071 and used this
 query:
 {{{
 select i, st_equals(
   ST_ExteriorRing(st_transform(g, 4258)), -- transform whole geom
   ST_MakeLine(st_transform(d.geom, 4258)) -- transform each vertex and
 reconstruct
 )
 from t6071_inp,
 lateral st_dumppoints(g) d
 group by i, g;
  i | st_equals
 ---+-----------
  2 | t
  1 | t
 (2 rows)
 }}}

 The t6071_inp table was created with the geometries in 3035 SRID.
