While you obviously havent been listening to any points, this ^^^
paragraph is self-contained proof that it would be silly to run a
gentoo production server::

But, of course, this is the point of gentoo. CFLAGS and USE flags are
used to 'mess with the compile parameters', so in gentoo, you always
'mess with the compile parameters'. So if you 'run gentoo as a
production server', 'its possible that you will cause problems', which
is 'insane'.
