[Qgis-user] Batch convert nonsense-coordinates from DWG?

So now I tried the import with EPSG 5653 and this one seems to work.

I am working now with geodata for around 15 years, but the CAD scene 
never runs out of new obstacles for me.

What the f is EPSG 5653, and most importantly: Why is it it even being used?

(Fun fact: once a CAD guy told me, after me complaining about his data 
having just some local cartesian coordinates and no official CRS, that 
his software would run much slower, the higher the coordinate numbers 
were, so working with short local coordinates was his way to be able to 
work at all.
Now these other guys just add another 2 digits? Obviously trying to 
evade work!)

Did I already mention that I very much dislike CAD and its seemlingly 
not existing philosophy behind it.

Thanks for the hints!
