Trig uses radians because it is mathematically the simpler, more meaningful
and more correct measure to use. Object transforms use degrees because it is
to most a more familiar system for visualization.
Perhaps POV should have a switching option, like on a calculator:
#declare transform_angle_type = radian;
#declare trig_angle_type = degree;
