+### What it does
+Checks for transmutes to the original type of the object
+and transmutes that could be a cast.
+
+### Why is this bad?
+Readability. The code tricks people into thinking that
+something complex is going on.
+
+### Example
+```
+core::intrinsics::transmute(t); // where the result type is the same as `t`'s
