  <div class="translate-x-12 rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">3</div>
  <div class="-translate-x-12 -rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">4</div>
  <div class="-translate-y-12 rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">5</div>
  <div class="translate-y-12 -rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">6</div>
</div>
<div class="size-20 transform-3d ...">
  <div class="translate-z-12 rotate-x-0 bg-sky-300/75 ...">1</div>
  <div class="-translate-z-12 rotate-y-18 bg-sky-300/75 ...">2</div>
  <div class="translate-x-12 rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">3</div>

  <div class="translate-y-12 -rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">6</div>
</div>

Without this, any children will only be transformed in 2D space and not in 3D space.
