Of course they did. Installing Debian or let's say Ubuntu or Linux Mint
is a nobrainer, a streamlined, fast quick and convenient experience,
even on most legacy hardware you're done under one hour.
Installing Gentoo forces you to think about stuff and know stuff you
don't need to know when e.g. using Ubuntu.
The Gentoo way equivalent to such distributions is Sabayon: comes with a
fully fledged installer (the same like Fedora btw), precompiled binaries
and installing doesn't take long.
Gentoo is more likely your thing if you want to master your hardware or
have quite much knowledge about it. The rest uses other stuff.
