This is a non-goal. Crappy eclasses are not good examples, and you can |
| 21 |
easily see a trend of improvement, with eclasses doing less completely |

It's better to have more code in ebuild than to have everyone else |
| 25 |
waste precious time on figuring out why some ebuilds magically have X |
| 26 |
and some others don't. |
