Ummm...that's not entirely correct.
All transformers, by their very nature, isolate input from output (2
coils of wire coupled by magnetic flux).
No, they don't. That's not only incorrect, but a dangerous assumption.
Autotransformers are transformers by name and definition, but they do
not isolate. They consist of one single winding which is tapped to allow
it to step up or down, the cost and losses are lower, but they do not
provide any isolation.
And by all means stay away from deceptacon transformers. Sure they
looks line and all.... but there's more to them than meets the eye.

Remind me not to post without spellchecking, so early in the morning.
Sheesh
