The system set (@system) is comprised ONLY of the packages listed in
the various "packages" files under /usr/portage/profiles. The
dependencies of the packages are NOT part of @system.

What you are saying is that packages in @system should never be
allowed to optionally have GUI functionality enabled. That's just
stupid.

If you want the smalled possible depgraph for @system, don't enable
any USE flags for the packages in @system. It is just that simple.
