NR 1.1.2
Transpose, Known issues and warnings

"The relative conversion will not affect \transpose, \chordmode or
\relative sections in its argument. To use relative mode within
transposed music, an additional \relative must be placed inside \transpose."


As I understand it, this simply means that
\relative c' { a b c \transpose a c {d e f} a b c}

is the same thing as

{
   \relative c' { a b c}
   \transpose a c {d e f}
   \relative {a b c}
}

and the same if we replace \transpose with \chordmode

Also, I believe it means that in

\relative c' {a b d \relative g' {a b c} }

the g' is not relative to the d' obtained from the action of the first
relative, but instead is an absolute pitch.

HTH,

Yes, it helped a lot :)
Thanks!
