Posting here because I'm fairly certain nothing can connect to this, the dumbest technically elementary conduit. It contains an intermittent pi and r, and an elementary (although useless) pi-to-r, and the funniest bit is that all of the conduits are dependent on the others to keep them from destroying themselves, only to end up with a useless pi at the end:

The initial pattern is three beehives and a glider. The final pattern contains an escaping LWSS, a block on cover, and a toad.
