Transfer function is the relationship between output and input of a circuit. In the clipping circuit, the general transfer function is such that the transfer curve Av is less than 1 for passive limiter and greater than 0 to limit the maximum and minimum voltage value.
A: SIGNAL could overshoot a value which can damage the input or output therefore a diode is used to clip these signals to a safe level

As a sinusoidal signal is clipped the waveform approaches a square wave.
frequency transfer function deals with transfer in frequency domain, transfer function alone can be referring to any type of transfer in different domain e.g time domain
A transfer function (also known as the system function[1] or network function and, when plotted as a graph, transfer curve) is a mathematical representation, in terms of spatial or temporal frequency, of the relation between the input and output of a linear time-invariant system with zero initial conditions and zero-point equilibrium. With optical imaging devices, for example, it is the Fourier transform of the point spread function (hence a function of spatial frequency) i.e. the intensity distribution caused by a point object in the field of view. An alternative brief definition is "a mathematical function relating the output or response of a system such as a filter circuit to the input or stimulus"[2].

In what context? Assuming signal transmission, the main disadvantage of a clipping circuit is that the data transmitted at values outside the circuit's range will be "clipped" (for example, if the clipping value is 20V, and the signal is 23V, the output will be 20V). This is esp. visible with audio circuits, and with electron tube circuits in general. The main advantage, at any rate, would be that a clipping circuit would serve as, say, an overvoltage protection for sensitive devices. But that is a bit of guessing on my part. If the circuit (or circuits) are to be designed properly, I would say that a bridging circuit should be built instead - a circuit that would "shake hands" between two other circuits, bringing their respective levels to a level common for both, or by translating between the two.

A thyristor is a semiconductor device which acts as a switch.

A: If an amplifier can be subjected to either input or output overdrive then clipping of both is desirable to insure safety margin and insure amplifier recovery in a minimum time
Maximum power transfer happens in a circuit when the resistance of the circuit equals the reactance. Impedance Z = R + jX. At R=X, maximum power transfer happens.
