Right, because it contains all the new atom positions.

Yes. First save the coordinates in a variable:
oldCoord = {*}.xyz.all
Now you have a reference. Provided you are not moving PARTS of the model
(one chain, for example, relative to another), after any number of moves you
can determine the quaternion for the overall change in coordinates. That's
all you need to reproduce that particular rotation and translation, again
with the COMPARE command. This is illustrated at

That the idea?
