Exactly Harie, you deduced that well! It actual stems from Astral Projections instead of using the Body of Light which is some floating yellow blob of weak constitution, you can mold it intot he Animal Body of Transformation
The perks of the animal body is you can eat and drink, so you can stay in the astral longer and you have some direct conract with the physical world, you still can not physically harm anyone in the animal body but you can have willing or forcable sex with them, go figure, the only problem is any conductive metal like silver or copper will break this forma nd cause the caster a type of whip lash
The only practical use of the half transmutation is to cause physical injury and death, you do get tougher for some reason and the best know people for this are the Beserkres of Eastern America (I think that's them) who could turn into bears and won many wars against other tribes and were heavily respected by both the science and magical community
