The words "postsapient" and "transapient" can mean a generalisation of the concepts of posthuman or transhuman to non-human beings. One could always conceive of further modifications to be made, but postsapience and transapience aren't concepts that really have an end: they're defined as being anything beyond naturally-evolved biology.

Otherwise, the concepts of postsapience and transapience are from Orion's Arm, which has multiple "toposophic levels" each of which is utterly incomprehensible to beings of lower levels. For multiple reasons, we don't have this kind of supersingularitarianism in the SporeWikiverse; while Orion's Arm does provide good examples of many things, we generally ignore references to toposophy.
