tx, ty are a painting offset which starts as 0,0 at the current painting root, and are then accumulated as you go down. The painting root may be the root renderer, or it may be a compositing layer, or something painting with a 2D transform. It would be possible to have block renderers change the coordinate system to their local coordinates when painting to eliminate tx, ty for blocks, but you'd still have to do something for inlines, and there may be other non-simple cases too.
