There is no hyphen in T Mat present on screen. Even Travel-Mat should also be written differently as TravelMat, or even TravelMat Relay. --Tangerineduel / talk 07:06, 25 December 2023 (UTC)

It does. The novelisation refers to it as T-Mat or Travel-Mat. Jack "BtR" Saxon 10:14, 25 December 2023 (UTC)
As its first appearance quite clearly has it without the hyphen it should be renamed.
Unless it qualifies for remaining by interpreting the T:CHAR NAMES with its most common usage as having the hyphen present as T-Mat?
Although I'd guess that all or most of the subsequent uses in prose cited in the article used the 'T-Mat' spelling based on the novelisation. --Tangerineduel / talk 13:44, 25 December 2023 (UTC)
