No. In subsequent queries, I used ST_Transform(geom,2163) only in the
clustering to get a good cluster number and so we could use meters for our
distance clustering. So 2163 was just used for input to ST_ClusterDBScan
which returns a number.
The geometry itself should still be in it's original 4326 srid unless you
changed it. 4326 is still preferable for most visualization tools is
preferable.
