It's not impossible for a news item to have bugs.
Somewhat recently, when the hardened toolchain changes were being made,
a news item was sent out recommending an `-e @world`. I knew it was
coming because I saw the drafts of the news item here (as well as
discussion on irc), so I was surprised when I didn't see it on my
laptop on the day of. But I did see it on my work machine.
We managed to track it down to my work machine using the hardened
profile whereas my laptop is using the hardened/selinux profile, and
Portage didn't quite catch that as being relevant for both.
