Why? There are still a lot of people out there who don't have (U)EFI or
don't use GPT.

Please keep this information or share why you believe this has to be
removed. I assume you are talking about
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Disks and for
me it's not a *mess*.

Maybe move it to a 'legacy' sub page but it's too early for complete
removal from my P.O.V.
