Buzzwords like "Stupid,INSANE,crap,bitching" beside: There are projects which need these combinations of USE flags like Releng. They are currently used to create the GRP set, and I don't see them growing useless for us. Further on, the default flags are only a proposal.

Without the default fortran USE flag, people who use the GRP wouldn't be able to emerge them w/o recompiling gcc. As soon as USE based atoms are available, the Scientific Project will discuss removing "fortran" from the default USE.
