People often get confused by the behavioral difference of getBBox and getBoundingClientRect.
getBBox is a SVG Element’s native method as equivalent to find the offset/clientwidth of HTML DOM element. The width and height is never going to change even when the element is rotated. It cannot be used for HTML DOM Elements.
getBoundingClientRect is common to both HTML and SVG elements. The bounded rectangle width and height will change when the element is rotated or when more elements are grouped.
