Transpose Sentences but stay at point

Dear Compeers,

I am writing a function to Transpose Sentences but keep at same point
in the sentence, rather than going to the end or the beginning after
the transpose is completed.

Have put the following code:

(defun transpose-stc--impl (arg)
---(let ((bounds (bounds-of-thing-at-point 'sentence)))
------(when bounds
----------(let*
-------------( (pt-init (point))
---------------(pt-end-of-stc (cdr bounds))
---------------(pt-offset (- pt-init pt-end-of-stc))
---------------(pt-transpose
------------------(save-excursion
---------------------;; Without this, the first character will move the 
previous word.
---------------------(goto-char pt-end-of-stc)
---------------------(if
------------------------;;
------------------------(condition-case err
---------------------------(progn ; No error
------------------------------(transpose-sentences arg)
------------------------------t
---------------------------)
---------------------------(message err)
-------------------------)
-------------------------;;
-------------------------(+ (point) pt-offset)
-------------------------;;
-------------------------nil
---------------------)
------------------)
---------------)
-------------)
-------------(when pt-transpose
----------------(goto-char pt-transpose))
-------------)
--------)
----)
)
