Why is HueSaturationValue needed when ColorJitter can do the same? ColorJitter further has contrast.

Historical Reasons.

HueSaturationValue was added first, and ColorJitter much later.

And HueSaturationValue should be a bit faster.

P.S. We have a lot of transforms with duplicated functionality, say a whole set of different scales and resizes that do the same as Affine transform.
