Not necessarily...

R core transformers have two separate bobbins.

No, many transformers these days have two. It makes meeting safety requirements much easier. They may be side-by-side or one inside the other.

So true. Cute things aren't they. Have you used them too ?

If you're going to be that pedantic then R cores have 4 bobbins. One on each limb and each assembly is comprised of 2 piece parts with clearances.

Nah. One part is a bob and the other is a bin. Obvious.

Not if it's a three limb transformer.
