    I thought the whole point of using Gentoo was like for those 12 people globally who want to compile their entire system

      That’s still the main purpose. The binary packages won’t have any special sauce in them, so no benefit for people already compiling. This move is mostly for people that want Gentoo on less-than-powerful systems.
