It's not that much of a logical leap for them to be an effective distraction, assuming Grimm cannot tell the different between a projected thought and the person who conjured it up. I didn't think them as projected emotions. More around the lines of being able to show others things you imagine in your head but can't explain with words.

In combat against other humans it could be useful sure. Against Grimm.... I don't think they can be tricked by illusions. Or at least Ren's semblance suggests that Grimm are only able to see negative emotions. Sounds might be able to trick them though.

A side note. Do you think that a person trained themselves not to feel any (negative) emotions around Grimm they could just walk right past them without any harm?
