Bo,

When you say something like "no longer match", knowing what you
started with and what you have now is useful to making any comment.

And there was no reprojection. ST_Transform() doesn't change the
on-disk values, it reprojects them on the fly. And you were, in any
event, asking for an identity transform, from 4326 to 4326.

P.
