Hi,

this is not necessary anymore. You said in your PR you saw this is
required, where did you see it? It's outdated information. Please refer to

https://projects.gentoo.org/qa/policy-guide/user-group.html

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Proxied_Maintainer_FAQ#Adding_acct-.7Bgroup.2Cuser.7D.2Fpackages_as_a_proxied_maintainer

Also do note we try to go downwards from 500, so the next available
number seems to be 384, per,

https://gitweb.gentoo.org/data/api.git/tree/files/uid-gid.txt

although a next free one will be given to you during merge. 461-463 are
already taken.
