What does PNI mean?

Anyway, I just went on the principle that "score is a single music
expression".  Frankly, I don't really understand that comment, but
I use \transpose so rarely that I've never felt the need to
experiment.

Please do a few experiments and send a clarified warning... if a
warning is needed at all.  Who knows, maybe whatever the problem
is has been fixed?
