As an example, here are (from left to right):
- NOP (0 gliders)
- 9fd pull (99 gliders)
- 10fd push (99 gliders)
- colour-changing phase-1 fire (44 gliders)

Binary slow salvos will be useful for static-tape universal constructors (e.g. for the unidimensional spaceship project), as well as allowing a reverse caber tosser to be implemented in 33 gliders instead of 35 (by replacing the 3 gliders used to construct the BLSE with a single retrograde glider). Also, RCT-33 would be somewhat easier to program than RCT-35 (no headache involving firing down an escaping BLSE and cleaning up its debris).
In general, they seem to be about 5-10x less efficient in terms of utility per glider [compared with single-channel p90+ technology], but they might be competitive in terms of utility per bit of information.
