Gears: vigorously placing vs. launching

When placing the gears on the peg, we are wondering what constitutes launching? Any mechanism that extends horizontally directly from inside the bot carrying the gear for placement has the potential for generating gear momentum and if it misses the peg, having the gear continue its path in free fall (aka a trajectory). So, what in your collective experiential wisdom is going to be the difference between ejecting a gear and launching, please? Thank you.
