I think there will always be some things that want /usr/lib. That said,
I'm guessing you started with a no-multilib tarball? Frankly, I find
there's still too many programs that want 32bit libraries to go full
no-multilib. Maybe in a few more years as the last of the 32bit only
machines die off and are replaced with 64 bit machines.

Hello,
I use the global flags USE="elogind alsa -multilib -abi_x86_32" and I
thought this would prevent 32bit libraries to be installed.
For example I have (from glibc) both:
/usr/lib/libutil.so
/usr/lib64/libutil.so
this causes problems with some packages outside portage that I would
like to install. The install fails (or is incomplete) because it is
trying to link a 32bit incompatible library, e.g.:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/9.3.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libutil.so when searching for -lutil
Is there a way to have only /usr/lib64 in gentoo or is this not
possible? I do use
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
in my shell startup file.
Thanks for inputs.
