It gets even weirder. If one writes: "a8[ <>] b" in order to avoid
having empty brackets then the two notes get beamed.
But it is documented as a "don't do it", so no substantive problem,
just slightly unintuitive.
This behaviour is expected. The empty chord has zero duration, occurring
at the same time as the following note. Post-events attached to the
empty chord are added to the note. "a8[ <>] b" is identical to "a8[ b]".
