That's a weird statement to make though. I would say that it was Gentoo's decision to test for all functionality.
But, even ignoring this for the moment: how does this apply to the linux kernel? Because the config file has TONS of options. Does Gentoo support all of these via use flags? If not, why not? Because that distinction to me would be totally arbitrary.
