Very true, but what is useful is the GRP packages that are released with
every release point, enabling an up to date precompiled gentoo with kde
and/or gnome [1] to be up and running within an hour or two. I know
precompiled binaries are not for everyone, but they can be very useful.
[1] and/or XFCE? cannot recall off the top of my head.
