I reported this to bugzilla[1] in June. There was no resolution, but the discussion was interesting and worth reading. To summarize, changing the handbook would be a start, but it doesn't solve the larger problem, and separate /usr will be supported for as long as it is practical to do so. I don't know how to resolve the situation, but I'm relieved to hear that other people care. [1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=372317
