Because a small number of people could deliver the improvements Gentoo
needs to bring it up to speed. And once it's there, most of the people
who are quite content to do the basic work necessary to let Gentoo sit
around in its current state will be quite content to do the basic work
necessary to sit around in its new, improved state.

The problem, of course, is delivering the improvements, and it's not a
primarily technical problem.
