Morphology
unconformity = conformity (transparent) = un + conform + ity
Standard negation 'un-' applied to 'conformity' yields the expected meaning 'lack of conformity/nonconformity', which is readily inferable.
Etymology
Unconformity is formed from un- 'not' and conform 'to follow', with -ity to make it a noun. That is why unconformity means a 'not following' of usual rules or ways, so it describes people or actions that do things differently from the group.
