pose element in SDF's joint element

What is the pose relative to? The documentation mentions it is relative to the frame attribute but what if there's no frame attribute added?

I'm trying to define the pose of a joint that connects two links. And I'm wondering if that pose should be relative to the origin of the parent link or whether it should be in world coordinates.

Thank you

The joint pose is relative to the origin of the joint's child link.

That's a little counterintuitive. Why is the joint pose defined in the child links coordinate system?

Second that, why was it done this way?
