Using of non-uniform scale, mirroring, linking, unlinking.
Almost every one modifier is based on a non-affine operations and matrices hacks.Autodesk actually use filters and interpolation in order to fix artefacts on non-ortho transforms like TBN.
Reseting the transform means reseting rotation and scale of the node's transformation matrix to zero rotation and identity scale. Then they apply the hacks to a gizmo transform.
The result is at object level you have zero rotation.
Also a good idea is to convert to editable mesh at the very final, because the modifier triangulates the mesh.

I'm guessing that this is to ensure that your player's feet are where they belong. If you've move the player during the animation process and the feet are not at 0,0,0 then your player will probably not be in the spot you expect it to be in game....
