-v is not itself a default, so if it controls the quiet output then
essentially a stock gentoo emerge command will be quiet.  I'd consider
that just another variance on quiet-by-default.

Otherwise the poll is like asking Americans whether they prefer the
Republicans, Democracts, Greens, Communists, Socialists, Moderate
Democrats, Conservative Democrats, Liberal Democrats, Ordinary
Democrats, Good-looking Democrats, or Reformed Democrats, and then
pronouncing that Republicans outnumber Democrats 48%-10%.

I won't dispute that a majority seem to prefer the old way - but 52-28
isn't really a clear depiction of this.  And no, this shouldn't
warrant having the elections team run a Condorcent vote (which should
handle issues like this).
