Can you back up your "general experience" with a tinderbox log? In addition, you are decreasing "QA" to "compiles".

That's the whole point. I am really confused. I guess some people have never really been in a different workflow than gentoo to know that it's really not state-of-the-art. And it really isn't. Not even for distros.
