One of the main advantages of gentoo is the flowing upgrade,
especially since this can only be very poorly emulated by
a binary distro.

If you really suggest that the user waits one month and
then recompiles the whole installation, you give up
this advantage of gentoo: The user is not up-to-date
for a long time, and moreover, then needs practically
a full reinstall; both are things which he wants to avoid
and why perhaps he has chosen gentoo in the first place.

At least, for me it is the case: if I have to reinstall
all packages every months - and even have delay in security
updates for a month - I will certainly switch the
distribution. I guess many others think similarly.
