I can answer the "what??": the same thing it does when it's inside a sexp
that's a symbol: transpose the string/symbol containing point and the sexp
following that. This is the convention also followed by M-t.
Sometimes confusion arises because [C-]M-t at the beginning of a word
[sexp] exchanges it with the previous one, so that for these commands an
object includes the point position that begins the next object.
`transpose-sentences' behaves similarly.
More confusion: C-x C-t trades current and previous line whether or not
point is at the beginning of a line (which is inconsistent either in
direction or in the defined extent of each line), and
`transpose-paragraphs' trades current paragraph with the next one even if
point is just at its beginning, but trades previous and next if point is
between two.
