You obviously missed the point, which was that a finite resistance
could be measured from the center tap to either end of the primary but
that the end-to-end resistance was infinite.

Any chance there's more in there than a transformer? Like a couple
of protective diodes (perhaps as snubbers) that are back-to-back when
viewed from end-to-end? It would be odd, but not completely out of
the question.
