Oct 20, 2023 at 21:50 comment added Dave Tweed @effect: Yes, but the gate to the left of that is acting as a buffer for the FF's Q output. It couldn't be tied in directly, because it is also used elsewhere. That was probably the most convenient way to "tie off" the NOT input of that buffer gate. Logic like this tends to be full of implementation details that don't make a whole lot of logical sense.
