True that the installations become identical very soon. But what if I set up  
server using stage 1 and an up-to-date portage tree. After the installation 
is finished it'll sit around doing whatever it's supposed to do and I don't 
really touch it except for security related updates.
Just an example where stage 1 was a nice option. Taking away such an option 
doesn't sound all too much like the gentoo way to me.
