-- **`emit` and the listener methods return nothing.** socket.io returns the socket from
-  `socket.emit(...)`, `socket.on(...)`, `socket.once(...)`, and the rest of the listener
-  methods, so the calls chain, while `Server#emit`, a namespace's `emit`, and a broadcast
-  operator's `emit` return `true`. smocket returns `undefined` in every one of those
-  positions, so `socket.on('a', f).on('b', g)` throws and a caller reading the result sees
-  a falsy value where socket.io gives a truthy one. Found by installing the package and
-  using it from outside rather than by the suite, which never read a return value.
+Nothing is listed here right now. The section stays because the rule above is worth keeping
+written down, and because an empty list is itself a statement: no gap of this kind is known
+today. Its first entry was the `emit` and listener return values, closed in #189, which the
+[emitter return values](./conformance.md#emitter-return-values) cases now pin on both
+targets.
