Actually an `emerge -uDN @world` fail constantly, because of broken deps and other stuff (given a desktop profile with a good number of packages) this fact render gentoo very unpleasant to keep up to date, it has never been a breeze but it was better. combining these two things I really could not care less, and nobody should care less for the usage of proprietary tools to improve things, knowing that thing can fail and could need a replacement. In the meantime Gentoo can improve itself in other areas, manpower don't seem too high at the moment. also you can strive for HURD and not linux, but don't impose it on us (at least not for now) - Francesco R.
