Not really. Even the example SYSTEM is not listed there, and as said
before we can't put every possible, now and in the future, bad variable
name there.
I think another line should be added to emerge --info, like this (just
an example, most variables omitted):
Variables defined in make.conf: CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, SYSTEM, ...
It seems that emerge --info --verbose does that (at least with portage-2.2)
I'm used to define USE_*¹ variables in my make.conf in order to split
out global USEs. Those variables does not appear in the emerge --info
output, but they are visible if I had --verbose.

1. This naming scheme isn't safe either, as USE_EXPAND and USE_ORDER are
make.conf settings
