Hi nop.head,
first question:
I don't have an answer but importing the SVG into Inkscape and
looking for "Document Properties.." looks like this (what is strange):

In the Scale/Viewbox section is set X and Y = -10 what should be both =0
That is the reason for the offset. I think that's a bug in OpenSCAD export.
And a minor thing: I have the Display Units always set to "mm". The
SVG-export from OpenSCAD should do that too.
About your second question:
I don't know what caused the form you showed but if I read "PDF".. well..
I think that's complicated and pretty error-like.
Maybe there are several equal forms on top of each other?
I found this definition of viewBox:
The viewBox attribute defines the position and dimension, in user space,
of an SVG viewport.
The value of the viewBox attribute is a list of four numbers: min-x, min-y
, width and height. The numbers separated by whitespace and/or a comma,
which specify a rectangle in user space which is mapped to the bounds of
the viewport established for the associated SVG element
That seems to be correct because the object starts and -10,-10 and is 20
wide. So it looks more like InkScape and the SVG import are both wrong.
Perhaps the PDF is not simply a line drawing, i.e. the lines are actually
thin filled rectangles rather than a line with stroke.
