I must have missed where you ran emerge -e @world. Oops. :)

But, yes, there are packages which don't belong to @system or @world.
@world consists of things you've explicitly asked for. @system consists
of things that are deemed inherently necessary for system operation.

Neither necessarily contains things like x11-libs/libX11, which may be
pulled in as a dependency of something in @world or @system (depending
on USE flags, etc). Various python modules would also not be found in
either @world or @system. @system and @world are explicit
statements...there are still the dependencies to worry about.

But if you ran emerge -e @world, the -e would have picked those up.
