Well, when I introduced them the trend was to move many things (like object visibility) to properties, so I just did the same.

For PictureTransformation yes, but MeshTransformation is often used on objects rather than definitions. For example the chest and the windmill are rotated slightly around their Y axis by a random value to provide some variation.
