Orientation of laser frame #1

Can you please explain why the laser frame is rotated by (just) 4 degrees on z-axis with respect to base_link? Is this only because the lidar's facing not matching exactly with robot's facing? The laser frame is defined in for example lidar.launch.

Thank you!

Hi, the lidar is actually tilted in the X-axis, which is pointed slightly tilted towards the ground.
