That's actually quite perceptive and correct.
You don't need to be a genius wise-ass to use Gentoo. You just need to
have some brain-smarts and a willingness to look after your own stuff

Gentoo appeals to the same personality that kit airplanes appeal to.
Some folks just love to tinker and build things themselves = a good
match for Gentoo.
