When an user or a potential user read it and want to do a networkless install, it will just use the Live CD install, and just get in trouble. It is even worse when many Linux magazines will have this CD. And you cannot argue at it is just to use catalyst or to burn a CD from a stage 3, when the doc say "a bootable CD that contains everything you need to get Gentoo Linux up and running."
That statement is still true. I have done 3 networkless installations for this release, without a problem. I used the installer. Using it you get your box up and running fast and convenient, so what exactly is the problem? It's not like you can't get Gentoo running without a network connection anymore.
