Yes, I do want to bet. You don't have a clue what you're talking about
and you don't have a clue how to use bash substitution correctly.

Just what do you think will happen when another eclass sets IUSE="X" and
it's supposed to be kept?

Just what do you think will happen when another eclass sets
IUSE="Xaw3d"?

Just what do you think will happen when Portage internals change? This
has happened several times with those variables?

Your solution is approximately on par with fixing a wobbly chair by
sawing off all four legs and then attaching what's left to a crocodile.
With the kind of idiocy you're spewing, do you really wonder why people
have no faith in Sunrise?
