I remembered
EvinZL's post and made the opposite change, resulting in a Bx106 Herschel conduit without an Fx119 output that must be deleted if wanted.
I searched for a way to suppress the glider but couldn't find one. Can anyone else?
I found a completely different method for a getting Bx106 without the Fx119 output that at first glance looks great.
Code: Select all
x = 40, y = 31, rule = B3/S23

The problem is that the output Herschel's first natural glider hits the ship if it isn't stopped, an eater 5 doesn't fit, and feeding the output Herschel into a dependent conduit with the standard transparent block hits the fishhook that deleted the input Herschel's first block if there is one and turns the block into a honey farm if there isn't, so the conduit requires a 7×9 eater weld that I'm positive isn't Spartan in order to be able to feed its output into anything.

The search for a good pure Bx106 continues.
Edit: The search is over now.
Code: Select all
x = 40, y = 28, rule = B3/S23

Here's a version without the leftover block in case it becomes useful in the future:
Code: Select all
x = 40, y = 28, rule = B3/S23

Another edit: I removed a block from the version that might become useful in the future.
Code: Select all
x = 40, y = 28, rule = B3/S23

It can be replaced with an eater 2 in order to handle the output Herschel's first natural glider, but since there is already a block-fishhook pair that can serve the same point, that is useless for most purposes.
Code: Select all
x = 40, y = 31, rule = B3/S23

Yet another edit: This almost lets the output Herschel's first natural glider out.
Code: Select all
x = 40, y = 28, rule = B3/S23

I am tentatively considering myself back.
