I'd be fine with a joke which somehow manages to pun NN transformers, electrical transformers, and the series about robots. That would be an interesting and sufficiently novel joke. It's high surprisal.

I have no problem policing the low-effort, un-novel, unsurprising, lame quips about expecting other use of the word transformer. It adds nothing of value and dilutes threads. I've gotten downvoted for doing it, most of us have, it's a right of passage, and one that I appreciate, since it makes HN comment threads jam-packed with interesting info.
