Notes

[edit]
  • "Cydraulics" is a real, albeit obscure term used for certain high-performance metal presses and braking systems where the pressures involved cause heat to build-up at a rate faster than it would normally disperse. In this case, however, it's probably just a portmanteau of "cyber"/"Cybertronian" and "hydraulics".
