Just to be clear, no one is suggesting otherwise.

But a 10kVA transformer design does NOT come up to kVA and 
then start limiting. Much of the previous wording in this 
thread seemed to imply flux density limited power.

I would want people to walk away assuming an XX power rated 
transformer delivers XX watts and then starts to "saturate". 
Basically it just runs hotter and hotter with increased 
load, like there is a reasonably linear series resistor 
inside.
