On one hand? Rule of Cool.

On the other hand, The Emperor of Mankind was rather infamous for NOT doing any of the following:
- Respecting the continued existence of Xenos
- Respecting the continued existence of Artificial Intelligence
- Respecting the rights of even human life, let alone the rights of all sentient beings
- Treating his Primarches as Sons, rather than Tools
- Doing what was Right, rather than what was Easy. Like, in general. Or at all. Or ever.

So, you know, a whole bunch of things that would lead to Rather Significant Disagreements between The Emperor and Optimus Prime.

Eitherway, definite Rule of Cool, would airbrush on a van just to annoy both Transformers fans and the more annoying 40k fans. Might even be at the right scale, given how tall Emps is.

What was the right thing to do in 40k?

To quote some Black Library Authors:

That's the recurring theme running through virtually every piece of fiction for the franchise: none of these evils are truly necessary. They're just the path of least resistance.
-JC Stearns

The Emperor in a lot of the writings we've done in the Heresy era- he's not a good person.
-McNeill

One of my favourite comments from someone in the IP department was "You have to know next to nothing of the lore to believe the Emperor was ever a good guy. And you have to ignore almost everything ever published about him."

Right, sure, not necessary. I'll believe you when this fucker doesn't need to trick, backstab, infect, and enslave people to spread horrific diseases.
