As Someone already pointed out, this makes no sense according to the definition of cybernetic. That, and there's absolutely no reason that a Semblance should be named X just because the character uses X. They are completely separate things.

Ruby's Semblance is not called "Scythe Speed". Weiss's Semblance isn't "Rapier Glyphs". Blake's Semblance isn't "Gun-Sheathsword-Katana-Kusarigama Shadow Clones".

The weapon the user uses is completely irrelevant to their Semblance, and the Semblance should not be named something just because of the weapon the user uses.

...Which is, of course, made more egregious by the fact that gauntlets, and cybernetic, are completely different things as well.

While gauntlets could be "cybernetic" in some sense, if the anon's reason is that the OC uses gauntlets, then it makes no sense for it to be named "Cybernetic Strength" (even leaving aside the meaning of cybernetic) instead of "Gauntlet Strength".......Which would still sound stupid and unnecesary.
