It's not by design because it doesn't work this way in VFP 6. Try in VFP 6.

? TRANSFORM(10.2) && Displays 10.2
? TRANSFORM(10.20) && Displays 10.2
SET DECIMALS TO 1
? TRANSFORM(10.20) && Displays 10.2

The VFP 6/7 help also states that "Trailing zeros are removed from the decimal portion of a numeric value".
