At present, if you try to directly set the emitted object of an Emitter to a single logic gadget, it just doesn't work. When you try to attach the other end of that dotted pink line to a logic gadget, nothing happens.

So you might think that Emitters can't emit single logic gadgets. But you'd be wrong.

To make an Emitter emit a single logic gadget, all you need to do is group the emitted logic gadget with something else, set the Emitter's emitted object to be that group, scope into the group, and finally delete the object that you didn't want. At that point the group decays to a non-group - the logic gadget that you wanted the Emitter to emit in the first place - and the Emitter is perfectly happy to emit that.

But why do we need to do all of that? It would be simpler if we could directly connect the emitted object link to a single logic gadget.
