So basically, dont-stop would update everything it can.
I half-jokingly called this "emerge --i-dont-care" in 2012:

There are (still) a lot of people who want it. Last night I started a
@world update that would take all night and then went to bed. Five
minutes later, app-laptop/tp_smapi failed to build due to some error
that I don't care about. As a result, it's going to take an extra day
to update my system.
Shouldn't --keep-going have kicked in there and restarted the update?
Yup. That was my reaction - you're talking about "build failed", which
is keep-going, and already which exists.
I'm talking about "build never starts" ie tp-smapi (and everything
else!) never even started! "too many failed dependencies - aborting" or
something like that ...
Cheers,
