So far, I disagree with everything I've _ever_ heard or read on this particular riddle.*
I think it depends more on just what you think "it" implicitly stands in place for/refers to. The answer is NOT an identity. It could be anything. :) For me, "it" in the sentence translates to something like "the causative factor" or "the missing information regarding the current circumstance". Volunteering, then, to equate oneself with that concept -- "it" -- this action must logically be transitive. We don't have a good way to express that, so we mangle what we've got. Trip * which means, of course, that I am wrong. By definition. But hey, I've never let that stop me.
