I've always felt Gentoo is better as a base or platform.  There's certainly 
enough power in the tools we provide for anyone to roll something 
"enterprise" based upon our work.  Or for any other purpose, including 
binary-only.

Much in the same way as there are numerous distros that ARE Debian -- 
derived from and cooperative with, but not separate from.

People could always try to fork, too, but many of us know how well that 
went for people who have tried...

Cheers,
