You quoted me one sentence prior saying that it's the Go ebuilds that
are trash and not anyone personally. But OK, I should have said "Sony
Interactive Entertainment" there instead of "you."

The upstream situation makes it very labour-intensive to do the work in a the way you are proposing (many packages would end up with hundreds to thousands of packages in the tree). Separating everything out in to separate packages will just increase the maintenance load exponentially, with no gains as go upstreams version lock all their dependencies.

I'm volunteering to work on one or two small Go packages. Can I convert
the eclass to use dynamic linking? Can I start replacing your packages
with my own if I need them as dependencies? I suspect not, and that's
one of many reasons why "having things in ::gentoo does not affect
anyone who does not use them" is bullshit.
