I'm not sure about that. I think requiring the SRID being set for a geometry to be transformed is some sort of safeguard against badly written code.
Maybe you could tell me about a use case where this behavior is problematic and where defining the proper SRID beforehand is not possible?

This behavior is problematic when you have coordinates in some custom SRS with no SRID assigned and you need to transform these coordinates.

OK, fair.

Fixed #25583 -- Allowed calling transform with CoordTransform even if SRID is invalid.
