If you want to point out false and misleading statements, here is
something you said earlier in this thread:

Of course. You don't need to have gcc installed to be able to
run a *compiled* program.

This is false.  C++ programs are usually linked against libstdc++ that
is in the gcc directory.  So removing gcc will break these programs.
Go head, try it.  emerge -C gcc, and see how well your system works.
(DANGER: for anybody else reading this, do *NOT* do this.  You will
likely break python, and thus portage, and then you are really
screwed).

Maybe *you* should do a little QA and testing before *you* give
someone information that you believe to be true at the time.
