Bob, I'm a bit confused by the question / thread here: https://github.com/wixtoolset/wix3/pull/156

Generally, empty transforms should not be included in a patch because it impacts install performance of both patches and bundles that include them, and any supersedence bits can revert valid patches if people aren't careful (combined with a much older change I made to create fake patch families when including all changes).
Rob's suggestion is that we allow it by default and throw a warning. Right now, it's an error and -aet turns it into a warning. Since empty transforms are legal (but useless/dumb), it seems it should be a warning, which makes the switch low-value.
