I agree, Alex. Perhaps the right term would have been "unique
enhancements". What ever the term used, Gentoo does have some features
that are counter to what people have learned while using other distros.
The learning curve is pretty steep at first but it doesn't take too
long to get relatively proficient. Once a user has "unlearned a bit of
past practice, I find that administering a Gentoo box is easier than an
RPM based system.
