Why? Is it offensive? It is actually the god of the transformers. See

if you do agree that we live in a real world , then creation and god and who created who is something that can be represented ,discussed ,argued about in its relevant media (websites. publication,....

i do not want to start a debate or offense or not, it is normally better (in my opinion) to be as neutral as possible especially in sensitive matters on subjects that touch the real world we live in

if you feel that this is not relevant or you do not care, i would respect that but i do urge users of this stack to remember that we live in a real world not some virtual reality projected using a movie or a story and hence they acknowledge that Primus is the god who created transformers

I wonder if it would help reduce confusion to capitalize Transformers? When I first read the sentence, I thought it might be referring to stream transformers and was confused.

In contexts where hyperlinking is allowed (e.g. the README) it might also help to hyperlink "Transformers" to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformers so that folks who aren't familiar with the franchise can learn more about it and at least come to the conclusion that this is not some kind of serious religious reference.
