SOP create/import - is it possible to create more than one output?
Suppose you want to output separate points, separate curves, and a separate mesh. Of course, it's logical to do this all in one node. Making copies with object merge is quite inconvenient.
I expected that simply adding multiple outputs inside would automatically create outputs, but no.
Type properties are blocked, and I couldn't find any other way. Maybe there's some non-obvious way? Or is it impossible?
If it's impossible, it would be great if the developers would unlock the ability to add outputs via Type properties or another method.

alex_sidefxgreat trick, thanks Alex
For now, there is a sneaky workaround to get multiple geo outputs in a SOP Geometry style with SOP Invoke
alex_sidefxor are you?
Of course you're limited to compilable nodes.
with one more sneaky workaround you are not, it's almost like SOP Import with Output SOPs working, just using empty compiled block instead of Output SOP
